HOW THE ISLAMIST MISREADING THE VERSES OF VEDA..
AND CLAIMING MO WAS IN VEDA..
I am giving you one of the few example.
translations made by some western indologists and in particular xian as well as Islamic followers.Foolish Muslims go around quoting these wronf misleading translations. I will only quote some for he benefit of other readers and show the gross errors.
>>this is the verse of Dr. Zakir Naik book...Excerp from some of the chicago based professor.
"All wife of the host reciting three mantras go round the horse. While praying, they say: 'O horse, you are, protector of the community on the basis of good qualities, you are, protector or treasure of happiness. O horse, you become my husband.'" - Yajur Veda 23/19.
The above translation was most probably provided by one of the most anti-Hindu xian author from University of Chicago by the name Wendy Doniger or Wendy something.

Translation as per Devi Chand titled "The Yajurveda"

O God, we invoke Thee, the troop Lord of troops. We invoke Thee, the Lord of beloved ones. We invoke Thee, the Lord of treasure and knowledge. O God, all beings reside in Thee. Thou art my judge. I know Thee full well free from birth, the sustainer of matter that keeps the Universe its womb. Yajur Veda 23/19.
