SSA Sangat Ji, I was looking at various things and what not and came across the 3 main quotes on the entrance hall at Harvard Law School and was shocked to find a quote on there from a book many of us on here belittle and say that there is nothing of value to find in it. The 3 quotes are: “An unjust law is no law at all.” - Saint Augustine (Augustine of Hippo) “To no one will We sell, to none will We deny or defer, right or justice.” - Magna Carta of King John “O ye who believe! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses To Allah, even as against Yourselves, or your parents, Or your kin, and whether It be (against) rich or poor: For Allah can best protect both.” - Qur’an   I am as shocked as many of you are to find a quote from the Quran at a prestigious place of learning such as Harvard Law School, how on Earth do you guys think it got there? My second question I guess is that how can we as a community get scripture from the Guru Granth Sahib at these places as it'll raise awareness for Sikhi when people read it and what not and could potentially lead to more people becoming Sikh?
