COTABATO CITY – Devout Muslim politicians vying for different elective positions had a brief respite from campaigning Sunday when they joined clerics in launching the first ever Maguindanaon translation of the Koran.


Islam was introduced in Mindanao 700 years ago by Shiek Karimul Makdum and, subsequently, by Shariff Mohammad Kabunsuan, but it was only in 1991 when clerics translated the Koran into Cebuano. It was eventually translated into the Maranaw dialect in 1998, and this year in the Maguindanaoan vernacular.
