The second half of that paragraph—”You are the compassionate and merciful one”—echoes the opening of all but one chapter of the Koran. Those chapters begin Bismillah al-Rahman al-Raheem, which translates into, “In the name of Allah, the most compassionate, the most merciful.”

That’s just poor grammar, if not a poor grasp of history, since the Torah predates the Koran by a millennium or more.
