I've read the Qu'ran several times cover to cover, and it is very specific when it says to respect other religions, espically those of the book (religions of the book = Abrahamic religions: including
Judism and Christianity)...so we can't simply rely on the good book. Religion is a constantly evolving entity, and changes, such as the ruling of nuclear weapons to be wrong, are evidence of such.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad issued a fatma (sp?) against nuclear weapons, which is law. That means that it is wrong, legally or religously, to develope nuclear weapons in Iran.
