No- that was a different member of Congress. Congressman Ellison was the individual that used the Quran.
Obama is a Christian, who attends the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. He used the book of his faith, The Bible.
Barack Obama was sworn into the Presidency on Abraham Lincoln's Bible. Because Chief Justice Roberts read some of the words of the oath incorrectly when swearing Obama in as president, the Chief Justice went to the White House the next day to have the president repeat the oath. There was no Bible at this second swearing-in.

During his oath reenactment Ellison used a two volume Quran published in London in 1764 that was once owned by Thomas Jefferson and loaned to Ellison by the rare book and special collections division at the Library of Congress
