BERLIN: The holy book of Islam, the Quran, has become a top selling book in Denmark one year after the blasphemous caricature crisis shook up the Danish society and the Muslim world, the Munich-based Focus news magazine reported on Monday. The Quran was ranked second during the important Christmas book sales period. Buyers of the Quran include many young Muslims who grew up in Denmark but do not speak Arabic. The Danish government has stepped up efforts in recent months to reach out to the Muslim community by hosting international Islam conferences and holding inter-religious dialogue seminars.
