The Ahmadiyya Muslim community New Zealand will be hosting an exhibition on the Holy Quran in Christchurch on Saturday, the 17th of Feb 2018. One of the first exhibitions of its kind to be held here, the event will provide a firsthand opportunity for local residents to find out more about Islam’s holy book through exhibits and seminars. The Te Reo Maori translation of the Quran will also be on display, as well as translations of the scripture in a number of other languages.
“The Holy Quran is believed by Muslims to be the most revered source of rules according to which Muslims should spend their lives. And while the Quranic injunctions deal with a multitude of issues from inheritance to family relations, unfortunately the only ones that are cherry picked and exploited by both the Islamic extremists and some western sources create quite a negative image of Islam”, says Mr Bashir Khan, the President of Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at New Zealand. “It doesn’t take much for an impartial student of religion to realize that such verses are taken grossly out of context by certain elements for their own goals. We, as a community, are keen to dispel the myths about both Islam and the Holy Quran, and holding the exhibitions about Holy Quran is one such way to do so.”
