DAR AL HARB - BELGIUM: NEWSPAPERS TO PUBLISH THE QUR'AN

Belgian paper to carry Qur'an

BRUSSELS, March 2 (KUNA) -- Belgium's De Standaard (The Standard) reported here on Friday that it would begin a serial publication of the Muslim Holy Qur'an in Flemish language as of Monday.

The new move would help Belgian people understand the Muslim holy book in a better manner in order to differentiate between the religion of Islam and terrorism, De Standaard, a leading intellectual daily of Flanders, the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium, reported.

The mass-circulating daily said the publication would be in the form of a series of articles in a free special supplement of the Belgian paper, noting that it would also contain impressive information on Islamic civilization and arts.

Islam is one of the official religions in Belgium.
