Concerning the teachings of Islam, I cannot speak with you.
The Islamic religion forbids its adherents to talk about it followers of other religions.
And truly I hold to the Islamic religion because my ancestors held that religion.
How can I love my religion, if I do not know it? Am I not allowed to be acquainted with it?
The Qur'an is too holy to be translated into any other language.
There is no one here who knows Arabic. People here are taught the Qur'an, but they don't understand what they read.
I consider that a crazy effort, to teach other to read without teaching the meaning of what they read.
