KoranloreLite will present a series of cartoons that offer a more light-hearted take on some of the Sura verses of The Koran which, in the opinion of this author, is taken far too seriously by its more credulous readers. KoranloreLite illustrates as well some of the stories told in the Traditions of Muhammad, as described in A. Guillaume's The Life of Muhammad, a translation of Ishaq's Sirat Rasul Allah.
