Original Note:
The claim that the Qur'an was written in Yiddish and that Muhammad was from Poland is false. The Qur'an was originally written in Classical Arabic in the 7th century CE. Muhammad was born in Mecca, in present-day Saudi Arabia, and Yiddish did not exist at that time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Quran https://www.metmuseum.org/learn/educators/curriculum-resources/art-of-the-islamic-world/unit-one/the-prophet-muhammad-and-the-origins-of-islam https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad
