Ok,
But I have a quick question. Is *Promulgation of Universal Peace* translated
*into* Arabic, as it is in many other languages? I don't mind if PUP wasn't
*originally* written in Arabic. I just want to learn that passage in Arabic,
kind of like someone would want to learn a Prayer/Passage in Russian,
Spanish, or French, etc.
peace,
