Intro[edit]

I was thinking of changing the "Note" section on the front page to: The Religion of God is considered as a very important book of Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi on spiritualism. Originally this book was written in Urdu, however, translated by International Spiritual Movement Anjuman Serfaroshan-e-Islam and w:Messiah Foundation International into English, French, Hindi, Sindhi, Arabic and more. In this book Gohar Shahi discusses the path to attain Divine Love of God. This is the version distributed by Anjuman Serfaroshan-e-Islam, while the version translated by Messiah Foundation International is copyrighted. Because for one thing, I changed the wording so it flows better- it also isn't an excerpt from the English Wikipedia. I also added the information about Messiah Foundation International because their version of the book is completely different from this one and is copyrighted. I thought it would help avoid confusion- I myself was confused as to why, when I tried to update the book on Wikisource by using the text from MFI's version, it was completely different.

The notes should give brief details, publication, translation and other things about this work. The link to wikipedia should be an article on the book, if the versions are notable it can be mentioned in that article. Adding information on the founder of an organisation is beyond our scope.
