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 it 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]
We did not leave anything out of this book.
[6:38]
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 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]
The Quran proclaims that the
Quran is complete, perfect, and fully detailed. Verses 6:114-115
explain to us what "fully detailed" means. The Quran is fully detailed
for religious law and "complete in truth and justice."
Shall I seek other than GOD as a source of
law, when He has revealed to you 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 learn from the Quran that all
religious duties were given to prophet Abraham and transmitted to us
generation to generation. The Quran deals only with practices and
rituals which have been distorted. The distorted ablution, as an
example, has been restored to the four original steps in verse 5:6.
The tone of voice during the contact prayer (Salat) was distorted ,
but restored to the original moderate tone (rather than silently as
some Muslims do) in 17:110.
We did not send before you any messenger, nor
a prophet, without having the devil interfere in his wishes. GOD then
nullifies what the devil has done. GOD perfects His revelations. GOD
is Omniscient, Most Wise. [22:52]
Satan will do everything he can
to prevent us from worshiping God alone. When Satan fails to prevent
an individual from worshipping God alone, he will then push that
individual towards the other extreme. We have seen various individuals
fall by the wayside and into Satan’s trap by believing that the Quran
will detail all religious rituals including the undistorted ones that
were given to prophet Abraham .
Needless to say, this idea
defies the Quran which spells out God system of giving religious
duties and rituals to prophet Abraham with the Quran correcting the
distortions and providing fully detailed religious law.
There is a defining example in
the Quran of how one verse explains the true meaning for the rest of
the related verses. This example deals with the difference between
messenger and prophet. God provided us the difference in meaning among
the two words 1400 years after the revelation of the Quran through His
Messenger of the Covenant. The defining verse is 3:81.
Verse 3:81 clarifies that
prophets bring scripture and wisdom. It clarifies that a messenger
confirms existing scripture, but does not bring new scripture. It
clarifies together with other verses (19:51,54,41,56) that every
prophet is a messenger but every messenger is not a prophet. It
clarifies together with 33:7 and 33:40 that Muhammad was the last
prophet, but not the last messenger. It clarifies and prophecies the
coming of God’s Messenger of the Covenant after the prophets. It most
certainly is a verse despised by the disbelievers who claim the Quran
as their holy book in the "Muslim world" but declare Muhammad as the
last messenger.
GOD took a covenant from the
prophets, saying, "I will give you the
scripture and wisdom. Afterwards, a messenger will
come to confirm all existing scriptures. You shall believe in
him and support him." He said, "Do you agree with this,
and pledge to fulfill this covenant?" They said,
"We agree." He said, "You have thus borne witness,
and I bear witness along with you." [3:81]
Verse 6:114 - An Equally Defining Verse
Verse 6:114 clarifies what God
means when He states that the Quran details everything and is fully
detailed. The verse clarifies that the Quran is fully detailed for
religious law. The fully detailed Quran clarifies that
religious duties/rituals were given to prophet Abraham and we are to
follow in his footsteps (generation to generation) to learn our
rituals. It clarifies with other verses that messengers and prophets
including prophet Muhammad carried out religious practices given to
Abraham (16:123).

Knowing.
