Hello Steve,

>LL>Here is a Muslim prophecy, found in the Quran (the Muslim Holy
>LL>Book) -

>LL>Quran (9:11) -

>LL>"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome
>LL>Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of
>LL>Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still
>LL>more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of
>LL>Allah; and there was peace."

>LL>Note well the verse number!

SA>Well, it sounds good, but it is not in my copy of the Koran
["recital"],

Wha'?  You mean I've been *had*?

SA>which renders Surah 9:11 as: "If they repent and take to prayer and pay
SA>the alms-tax, they shall become your brothers in the faith. Thus we make
SA>plain Our revelations for men of understanding."

Oops.  Methinks I may have been duped by an urban legend...

SA>I am guessing that the above is 9:11, as my copy doesn't have every
SA>verse marked, only every 3rd or 4th verse, but nothing between 9:8 and
SA>9:13 inclusive refers to an eagle or its wrath. Again, Surah 11:9
SA>makes no mention of an eagle or its wrath.

And I thought everything I read on the internet s'posed to be true. :'(
