Mark Shaw added:
"The mosque is an integral and valuable part of our community in Chesham. This is a very kind gesture by the Imam and members of the mosque, which will give a wider audience reference to the Qur'an."
The Qur'an, literally meaning "the recitation", is the central religious text of Islam, which Muslims believe to be a revelation from Allah.
