Dear Dr. Jamshed Ibrahim,

I would n't call it an obsession really but just a strong desire to get
the facts straight. Could you please look at the following Quranic
aayaat..

7:91 asbaHuu fii daari-him jaathimiin

28:18 asbaHaa fii_lmadiinati Khaaifan yataraqqabu

Would you use plane "became" meaning in these sentences would morning
have anything to do with the cotext?
