Mete,
	To summarize from the earlier, longer responses:

	CrossWire is not interested, itself, in supporting multi-faith study.
	There is no need to modify the software to support this effort.
	The best way to do this would be to set up a separate repository of 
other texts.
	There is already a Quran module available in the beta area:
