The Quran is a Divine Miracle of Literature
Prophesy
- Science - Warnings - Wisdom - Truths
..and it has been Preserved 100% In the Original Language
- for over 1,400 years!
|
|
Humanity has received Divine Guidance only through two channels:
- the Word of Almighty God ("Allah" [in
Arabic]) [scriptures, Bible, Psalms, etc.]
- the Prophets sent by the Allah to communicate His
Will to mankind
These two things have always been going together, hand in
hand. |
More important though, there were at that
time, tens of thousands of his companions ("sahabi"
in Arabic) who memorized the complete Qur'an from the instruction
of the prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. Even the prophet
himself, peace be upon him, used to recite it while angel Gabriel
once a year and in the last year of his life he recited it two
times just before the month in which he died.
|
Next, the leader who came after the prophet Muhammad, peace
be upon him, (Abu Bakr) entrusted the collection of the Qur'an
to be written in one volume by one of the Prophet's scribe,
Zaid Ibn Thabit. He kept it till his death. Then the next leader,
Umar and after him to his daughter, Hafsa who had been one of
the wives of prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
|
Then from the original text which now resides in Topkope
Museum, in Istanbul, Turkey, the next leader, Uthman prepared
several other exact duplications and sent them to various Muslim
territories such as; Uzbekistan and Turkey and England. Today
many of the Muslims from these areas are still memorizing the
Qur'an.
The Qur'an was so meticulously preserved because it is the
Book of Guidance for all of humanity for all times. That is
why it does not address just the Arabs, in whose language it
was revealed. In fact Arabs today do not comprise more than
13% of the Today of Muslims in the world today.

The
Qur'an speaks to "mankind"
Quran speaks to all of mankind
on a general basis without regard to race, tribe, color, social
position, financial condition or genealogy.
- Allah the Almighty
says
{O Mankind! What has seduced you from
your Lord so Generous?"} (Qur'an 82:6)

The
Practical Teachings of the Qur'an
Teachings of Quran are established by the example of Muhammad,
peace be upon him, and the good Muslims throughout the ages have
endeavored to emulate his teachings both in thought and conduct.
The distinctive approach of the Qur'an is that its instructions
are aimed at the general welfare of the mankind and are based
on the possibilities within his reach. |

The
Qur'an is Wisdom Conclusive.
It neither condemns nor tortures the flesh nor does it neglect
the soul.
It does not
humanize God, nor does it deify man.
Everything is carefully placed where it belongs in the
total scheme of creation.
Yet it obviously is not written in human style (chronological
order). Those who would claim that the prophet Muhammad, peace
be upon him, was the author of the Qur'an are claiming something
that is humanly impossible.
How could any person of the 7th century utter such scientific
truths as those found in the Qur'an?
Could he describe the evolution of the embryo inside the uterus
so accurately as we find it now recorded in modern science?
(see: Dr. Keith Moore's book - on embryology) |
|
Secondly, is it logical to believe that Muhammad, peace be
upon him, who up to the age of forty was marked only for his honesty
and integrity, began all of a sudden the authorship of a book
matchless in literary merit and the equivalent of which the whole
legion of the Arab poets and orators of the highest caliber could
not produce? |
|
And lastly, is it justified to say that Muhammad, peace be
upon him, who was known as "Al-Ameen" (trustworthy)
in his society and who is still admired by the non-Muslim scholars
for his honesty, would lie about receiving the Qur'an (which
forbids lying) from the Angel Gabriel and then still be able
to establish the best human society on the face of the earth,
based on truth? |
|
Surely, any sincere and unbiased searcher of truth must come
to the conclusion that the Qur'an is the revealed Book of Almighty
Allah.
Readers can easily see how the modern world is coming closer
to reality regarding the truth of the Qur'an.
We appeal to all open minded scholars to study the Qur'an in the
light of the aforementioned points.
We invite all to challenge the validity and accuracy of the sciences
known to man today and keep in mind that this is the EXACT TEXT used by the Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, over one thousand four hundred
years ago.
We are sure that any such attempt will convince the reader that
the Qur'an could never have been written by any human being ever.
