qur'an

By Sajid Iqbal

1. What is the Quran?

The Quran is the Muslim holy book, ya’ know like the Bible is to Christianity and the Torah is to Judaism. It was revealed to Prophet Muhammad through the Angel Gabriel. The Quran is the record of the exact words revealed by God to the Prophet Muhammad . Did you know that the Quran is a 'first-person' revelation, and is the authentic expression of the divine voice of the Almighty? The Quran offers a revelation from the point of view of God Himself.

2. Why was it revealed?

The Quran was sent to the whole of mankind for all times and not just for Muslims. The Quran is an instruction manual for life. If you follow it you will never go wrong. God says in the Quran:

If you think the Quran is just about nice stories, do’s and don'ts, history lessons and how to live your life then you’re in for one heck of a shock!

Did you know that there are hundreds of scientific statements in the Quran which have only been discovered by scientists in the 20th century but the Quran has mentioned them over 1400 years ago.

This clearly proves that the Quran is definitely not the work of any human being but has come from none other than God Almighty.
