  Modern Muslims are under the impression that the text of the Bible was corrupted by Christians but is this really the position of the Quran and earlier Muslims who were closer to Muhammad? We shall investigate this by analyzing what the Quran and Islamic sources have to say on the matter. The Quran affirms that no one can change the words of Allah. Surah 18:27: And recite that which hath been revealed unto thee of the scripture of thy Lord. There is none who can change His words and thou wilt find no refuge beside Him The Quran affirms that the Torah and Gospel are the word of Allah: Surah 3:3-4: He hath revealed unto thee (Muhammad) the Scripture with truth, confirming that which was (revealed) before it, even as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel. Surah 6:114: Shall I seek other than Allah for judge, when He it is Who hath revealed unto you (this) Scripture, fully explained? Those unto whom We gave the Scripture (aforetime) know that it is revealed from thy Lord in truth. So be n

  It is said that, "A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops." Unknown Teachers are the implementers of government's educational policies and as such, need to be equipped with all teaching and learning resources to enhance their lesson delivery. Unfortunately in Ghana, lack of teaching and learning materials have made learning difficult for students. Teachers hands are tied behind their back because they cannot function properly without the necessary tools to teach. Due to this, many have resorted to abstract teaching whiles few are able to go the extra mile of using their little income to buy teaching and learning materials. The Ghana teacher is capable of delivering a comprehensive and holistic lesson if equipped with the right tools to teach. One person who is fostering teacher competency in his constituency is Hon. Alexander  Afenyo-Markin,the member of parliament for  Effutu constituency in the Central region of Ghana. He has been consi
