The Quran was placed in prophet Muhammad's heart (2:185, 17:1, 44:3,
53:1-8, 97:1) on the 27th night of Ramadan, 13 B.H. (Before Hijra) or
610 A.D. Subsequently the Quran was released to prophet Muhammad's
memory with angel Gabriel's mediation over a period of 23 years.
WE MADE THE QURAN EASY TO LEARN [54:17]
This above verse is repeated numerous times in Sura
54. Contrary towhat is taught by the scholars and others that the
Quran is difficult, our Creator and the Author of the Quran states
otherwise - "We made the Quran easy to learn. Does any of you wish to
learn?"
PROPHET MUHAMMAD WROTE THE REVELATIONS WITH HIS
OWN HAND
The Quran has no support of the opinion that Muhammad
was illiterate.
The first revelation was "Read," and included the
statement "God teaches by means of the pen" (96:1-4), and the second
revelation was "The Pen" (68:1). The only function of the pen is to
write.
Muslim scholars of the first two centuries after the
Quran could not understand the Quran's challenge to produce anything
like it. They had no idea about the Quran's mathematical composition
(see TRUEFAQ #5). When similar work in literary excellence was
produced the Muslim scholars then decided to proclaim Muhammad an
illiterate man! They figured that this would make the Quran's
extraordinary literary excellence truly miraculous. The word they
relied on to bestow illiteracy upon the Prophet was "UMMY."
Unfortunately for those "scholars," this word clearly means "Gentile,"
or one who does not follow any Scripture (Torah, Injeel, or Quran)
[see 2:78, 3:20 & 75, 62:2]; it does NOT mean "illiterate."
The Prophet was a successful merchant. The "Muslim
scholars" who fabricated the illiteracy lie forgot that there were no
numbers during the Prophet's time; the letters of the alphabet were
used as numbers. As a merchant dealing with numbers every day, the
Prophet had to know the alphabet, from one to one-thousand.
The Quran tells us that Muhammad wrote down the Quran
-Muhammad's contemporaries are quoted as saying, "These are tales from
the past that he wrote down. They are being dictated to him day and
night" (25:5). You cannot "dictate" to an illiterate person. The
Prophet's enemies who accuse him of illiteracy abuse Verse 29:48,
which relates specifically to previous scriptures.
When the Prophet died, he left the complete Quran
written down with his own hand in the chronological order of
revelation, along with specific instructions as to where to place
every verse. The divine instructions recorded by the Prophet were
designed to put the Quran together into the final format intended for
God's Final Testament to the world (75:17). The early Muslims did not
get around to putting the Quran together until the time of Khalifa
Rashed `Uthmaan. A committee was appointed to carry out this task.
QURAN - A BOOK LIKE NO OTHER
The Quran is God's Final Testament to the world, and
He has pledged to protect it from the slightest distortion (15:9).
Thus, the Quran is surrounded by invisible forces that guard it and
serve it (13:39, 41:42, 42:24).
Unlike any other book, the Quran is taught by God
(55:1-2); He teaches us what we need at the time we need it. This is
why we read the Quran hundreds of times without getting bored. We can
read a novel, for example, only once. But the Quran can be read an
infinite number of times, and we derive new and valuable information
from it every time.
On the other hand, the insincere readers - those who
read the Quran to find fault with it - are diverted from the Quran
(7:146, 17:45, 18:57, 41:44). In fact, God's invisible forces help
them find the faults they seek. Since the Quran is perfect, such
"faults" serve only to reveal the stupidity of God's enemies.
God uses His own attributes to describe the Quran; He
calls the Quran " `Azeem = Great" (15:87), "Hakeem = Full of wisdom"
(36:2), "Majid = "Glorious" (50:1), and "Karim = Honorable" (56:77).
What can we say?
Since the Quran is God's message to all the people,
regardless of their language, the Quran is accessible to the
believers, regardless of their language (41:44). This explains a
profound phenomenon: the believers who do not know Arabic know the
Quran better than the Arabic speaking unbelievers. Because of the
invisible forces serving the Quran, it is readily and enjoyably
accessible to the sincere believers, and utterly inaccessible to the
unbelievers (17:45, 18:57, 56:79).

QURAN - FULLY DETAILED AND ONLY SOURCE OF
RELIGIOUS LAW
"The only people who truly
believe in our revelations are those who fall prostrate upon hearing
them. They glorify and praise their lord, without any arrogance."
Quran 32:15
We learn from the following verses of the Quran that
the Quran is detailed in religious law. A worshiper of God alone will
not seek an outside source for religious LAW.
".We did not leave anything
out of this book.." 6:38
"Say, 'Whose testimony is the
greatest?' Say, 'God's. He is the witness between me and you that this
Quran has been inspired to me, to preach to you and whomever it
reaches. Indeed, you bear witness that there are other gods beside
God.' Say, 'I do not testify as you do; there is only one god, and I
disown your idolatry.'"6:19
"Shall I seek other than God
as a source of law, when He has revealed this book fully detailed?
Those who received the scripture recognize that it has been revealed
from your Lord, truthfully. You shall not harbor any doubt."
6:114
"The word of your Lord is
complete in truth and justice. Nothing shall abrogate His words. He is
the Hearer, the Omniscient." 6:115
"We have given them a
scripture that is fully detailed, with knowledge, guidance, and mercy
for the people who believe." 7:52
"This Quran could not possibly be authored by other
than God. It confirms all previous messages, and provides a fully
detailed scripture. It is infallible; for it comes from the Lord of
the universe." 10:37
"In their history, there is a
lesson for those who possess intelligence. This is not a fabricated
Hadith; this (Quran) confirms all previous scriptures, provides the
details of everything, and is a beacon and mercy for those who
believe."12:111
"We place shields around
their minds, to prevent them from understanding it, and deafness in
their ears. And when you preach you Lord, using the QURAN ALONE, they
run away in aversion." 17:46
"You shall recite what is
revealed to you of your Lord's scripture. Nothing shall abrogate His
words, and you shall not find any other source beside it."
18:27
"We have cited in this Quran every kind of example,
but the human being is the most argumentative creature." 18:54
"Say, 'If the ocean were ink
for the words of my Lord, the ocean would run out, before the words of
my Lord run out, even if we double the ink supply."
"Say, 'I am no more than a
human like you, being inspired that your god is one god. Those who
hope to meet their Lord shall work righteousness, and never worship
any other god beside his Lord.'" 18:109-110
"We have cited for the people
every kind of example in this Quran, that they may take heed."
39:27
QURAN - ONLY ACCEPTABLE HADITH/SUNNAH
Both the words Hadith & Sunnah are in the Quran. Both
of them refer to God's Sunnah and God's Hadith. There is no such thing
as prophet Muhammad's Hadith or prophet Muhammad's Sunnah. Most the
Muslims fail to realize that following words other than that of God is
defined in the Quran as idolatry (6:19).
SOME VERSES IN THE QURAN PROCLAIMING THE QURAN
TO BE THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE HADITH
"Have they not looked at the
dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all the things God has
created? Does it ever occur to them that the end of their life may be
near? Which hadith,
besides this do they believe in?" 7:185
"Among the people, there are
those who uphold baseless Hadith,
and thus divert others from the path of God without knowledge, and
take it in vain. These have incurred a shameful retribution."
31:6
"God has revealed herein the
best Hadith; a book that is consistent and points out both ways (to
heaven and hell). The skins of those who reverence their Lord cringe
therefrom, then their skins and their hearts soften up for God's
message. Such is God's guidance; he bestows it upon whomever He wills.
As for those sent astray by God, nothing can guide them." 39:23
"These are God's revelations
that we recite to you truthfully. In which
hadith other
than God and His revelations do they believe?" 45:6
"Let them produce a
hadith like this if they are
truthful." 52:34
"Therefore, let Me deal with
those who reject this Hadith;
we will lead them on whence they never perceive." 68:44
"Which
Hadith other than this do they
uphold?" 77:50
THE ARABIC WORD SUNNAH REFERS TO GOD'S SUNNAH
AND NEVER AS THE PROPHET'S SUNNAH
"This has been consistently the
case with all the messengers that we sent before you, and you will
find that our system (Sunnah) never changes." 17:77
"This is GOD's eternal system
(Sunnah), and you will find that GOD's system (Sunnah) is
unchangeable." 33:62
"Such is GOD's system (Sunnah)
throughout history, and you will find that GOD's system (Sunnah) is
unchangeable." 48:23
HADITH/SUNNAH - INVENTION OF PROPHET'S ENEMIES
Most Muslims fail to understand the fact that the
Hadith and Sunnah DID NOT come out of the prophet's mouth. Hadith and
Sunnah are fabrications created by simple minded individuals and the
enemies of the prophet, who created stories (fabrications) which
allege something took place two hundred years prior to that time. The
Quran states clearly that fancy words (hadith/sunnah) are creation of
the prophet's ENEMIES.
[6:112] We have permitted the
enemies of every prophet - human and jinn devils - to inspire in each
other fancy words, in order to deceive.
Had your Lord willed,
they would not have done it. You shall disregard
them and their fabrications.
REASON WHY GOD ALLOWED FABRICATIONS
(Hadith/Sunnah for Muslims, Trinity for Christians; and
Mishnah/Gemarrah for the Jews).
The fabrications (hadith/sunnah) attributed to the
prophet are a test for those who claim to be believers. The
worshippers of God alone will discard them while those do not believe
in the Hereafter will accept them
[6:113] This is to let the
minds of those who do not believe in the Hereafter listen to such
fabrications, and accept them, and thus expose their real convictions.
