The Quran
All About The Quran
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 [scriptures, Torah,
Psalms, Injil & Quran, etc.]
The Prophets inspired 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 Quran from the instruction
of the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Even the prophet himself (peace
be upon him) used to recite it with 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 Quran 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 other places. These scriptures are still in museums there
and one has found its way to a museum in England as well. All of them
are exactly the same. Today many of the Muslims from these areas are
still memorizing
the Quran.
The Quran 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.
