GOSL should carefully go through the Singhala version and CUT OFF any verse that contains VIOLENCE.
Japan does this. ONLY the Japanese govt. approved version of the Koran is ALLOWED in Japan. It has no verse that calls for violence.
With the Singhala translation, the Ahmaddiyya sect will grow faster in SL. It is best to CORRECTLY base it at inception than regret later.
Ahmadyya, Shite, Sunni, etc. should follow one GOVT. APPROVED Koran in SL.
Tamil Nadu has the Tamil version of Koran which SL Muslims follow.

Lorenzo, if you say this in public in Sri Lanka, Muslim OBAMA will request Ranil punk to jail you. Now we have enough Japanese educated Sinhala that can do the translation in Japan. Then publish it there. Later export it to SL. well, today the mullahs of Palestinians burned DAVID’s tomb and Israeli solders killed one and injured many Palestinians. MUSLIM OBAMA is furious and sent John Kerry to Germany to meet Israeli Prime Minister.
