Anti-Muslim groups and
individuals are trying to spread anti-Islamic propaganda by
corrupting the Holy Quran via worldwide web. These evildoers are taking the words of
God and manipulating
them in such a way that non-Muslims and non-Arabic speakers will
read the fake ‘Quran’
with horror. The Holy Quran has given us the classical Arabic
language, grammar, and
form, and those who are not educated in the reading of the Holy
Quran could be easily
deceived by the false ‘Quran’ websites. Islam is the fastest
growing
religion, in terms of
population conversion, with tens of thousands of converts every
year.
Good Jews and
Christians, believers in the Book, may be turned against innocent
Muslims and Islam by way
of these fake ‘Quran’ websites.
For example, on one of
the fake ‘Quran’ websites,
http://dialspace.dial.pipex.com/town/park/geq96/original
There is a false sura,
(chapter), called al-Muslimoon. In the true Holy Quran there is no
such sura. Whilst
reading this fake sura one gets a sense of Islam condemning the
other,
believers of the book,
and descendants of Prophet Adam. This is false, untrue.
There is
another fake ‘Quran’
website that has been found to originate from Israel and the Zionist
influences.
They have very simply called their site:
http://www.thequran.com
This seems to be a very
clear and simple guide to studying the Holy Quran but it is a false
‘Quran’.
To battle these
corrupted website organizers, it is necessary to log onto true
websites. Check and double-check
your sources. The words of the Holy Quran have descended from God and has not
been re-written or wrongly interpreted since its descent in 610 A.D. almost 1500 years.
Websites containing the true Holy Quran have the Holy Quran in full text, teachings and
lectures by various Imams, postings different Islamic functions
worldwide, ways or links
to contact for confirmation on questions regarding Islam and
non-inflammatory
explanations or topics on Islam. The most sure and correct
form of Holy
Quran is the book
itself, which can be used as a guide to checking against the false
websites. Here are
a few of the true Islamic websites containing the actual words of
the
Holy Quran.
http://www.islamicity.com
http://www.submission.org
http://www.islamonline.com
It is important to
spread the word about these false ‘Quran’ websites in order to
combat
the anti-Islamic
confusion and hatred. Most importantly, spread the true message of
Islam,
peace.
