> Why is Mountain and Book capitalized? And what is the meaning of
frequented fane in regards to this Quranic reference? I am wondering why
frequented fane is not capitalized.

Dear Larry,

There are no caps in Arabic so the decision in this case was made by the
translator. I think Baha'is *would* capitalize Frequented Fane, for it is
reference to the Manifestation as the Temple of God.

There is an interersting sermon by Ali which alludes to this verse, btw,
which Khazeh has translated:

warmest, Susan
