Our Comment:

1. We would like to warn Nga Kor Ming not to recite the verses of the Holy Quran in the wrong pronunciation and state it from a non-existent Chapter of the Holy Quran. For this mistake, he should make a public apology. It is alright to quote the meaning or translation of the verses of the Holy Quran in a respectful manner, in whatever language, because that is no longer the Holy Quran as defined by Islam.

2. Islam does not prohibit anyone from quoting the truth in the verses of the Holy Quran in a respectful manner. Islam only prohibits the insult and denigration on the verses of the Holy Quran. If anyone regards the Holy Quran in high esteem, then Islam welcomes them. We welcome any non-Muslim to understand the truth in the verses of the Holy Quran. Who knows may be one day they will embrace Islam and become Muslims.

3. So, we must be able to differentiate between what is right and what is wrong. What is truth and what is falsehood. We do not question Nga Kor Ming’s intentions when he recited the said verses and leave them to Allah s.w.t. to determine them. If his intentions are good, Allah s.w.t. will reward him with goodness and if they are otherwise, then Allah s.w.t. will reward otherwise. This is the justice of Islam.

Best Regards.........
