Baby born in Ibadan clutching holy Qur'an

The Nigerian Tribune published this story about a baby born clutching a copy of the Qur'an. The baby, who has since been named Ismail, was born in a church at the Oniyanrin area of Ibadan, Oyo State of Nigeria, in September, the reports states. A renowned Islamic preacher who the newspaper spoke with said the woman who delivered the baby threw away the object she found in the baby's hand thinking it was something devilish, only for them to later find out it was a pocket-size Qur’an which contained all the 114 chapters in the holy book. It was wrapped in a thread. The preacher said although the Qur’an was small, the lettering inside was readable.
