The Federal Government has decided to compile an authentic copy of the Holy Quran with respect to its Arabic text and translation in consultation with provincial Quran Boards to prevent any kind of distortion.
This was announced by Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, along with Minister for Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Mufti Abdul Shakoor and PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi in Islamabad on Thursday.
He said prints of this authentic copy of the Holy Quran will be further distributed at district and tehsil levels. He said the federal and all the provincial governments will ensure that there should be authentic copies of Quran’s Arabic text as well as its translation.
He said action will be taken against any attempt to distort the Quran’s text. He said cyber wing of the Federal Investigation Agency and the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority will be responsible for checking negative propaganda on the social media.
