Iowa Legislature Opened With Islamic Curse

In January of 2008, the Iowa House of Representatives was opened with an invocation which included this phrase:
"Victory over those who disbelieve". That information comes from a newspaper article: By: Erin Ballou, Pilot Tribune Staff Storm Lake Pilot Tribune, January 24, 2008. It was included in an email from Act For America, which you can read on line at ACT's news page.

The malediction is derived from Allah's book of damnation.

2:286. Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. "Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maula (Patron, Suppor-ter and Protector, etc.) and give us victory over the disbelieving people."
