Most Muslims do not understand Arabic, classical or modern.

i think you'll need to demonstrate this.

Re: Things Go Better With Coke
While Religion is, unfortunately, also often commercialized, the good book itself seems to be distributed quite freely and indiscriminately.
​
which is why you can find bibles from $10 to nearly $100 on thisamazon search page. and look. priced high to low lol. collectors edition bibles for thousands. so free and indiscriminant.

Re: Things Go Better With Coke
clearly they are being given the bible freely and they just give the book-maker $60 because they are so thankful.

my Qu'ran has alternating arabic and english pages. and yes, like other semitic languages, arabic reads from right to left.

ou say they aren't native arabic speakers because.... they don't live in arab regions? all the muslims i know speak arabic as well because they learned it (either as children or adults) in order to be able to read the qu'ran and sunna. it may not be their first language, but it certainly is one they speak.
