What about this - anyone had any Bible verses on the side of their wrasse or doggies recently!!!!!


[color=blue]'Wonder fish' caught in Kenya...
MOMBASA: A tuna fish caught in the Indian Ocean has excited Kenyan Muslims who are flocking here by the hundreds to see a Quranic verse apparently embedded in its scales.

Dubbed the "wonder fish" by locals in this port city, the 2.5kg tuna has attracted so much attention it has been placed in the custody of the National Fisheries Department for safekeeping.

The otherwise ordinary fish caught the attention of fishmonger Omar Mohammed Awadh who pulled it out of a catch when he noticed what seemed to be Arabic writing among the scales near its tail.

Arabic scholars determined the writing was a verse meaning "God is the greatest of all providers", said Hassan Mohamed Hassan, with the National Museums of Kenya.

"This has been confirmed as a verse from the Quran," said Sheikh Mombasa Dor, the secretary-general of the Council of Imams and Preachers.
