Quran is the book of God. Some people have misconception about Quran that they think this book was written by Prophet Muhammad or after the Prophet. It is not true.

Quran was revealed on Prophet Muhammad gradually starting from his Prophethood until the last days of his life. Quranic verses were revealed on different occasions and some rules used to revel for the believers. Prophet Muhammad used to inform people about new revelation. The companions of the Prophet used to write those verses and some remember those verses.

Prophet Muhammad used to inform people this verse belongs to such chapter and Quran was compiled by this way. This is God [Allah] who took the responsibility to preserve it in its original shape [as the words of Quran says: We revealed this Quran and we will preserve it]. This is the reason there is one and only one book Quran among all the Muslims of the world. Although Muslims have many sects but they have same Quran anywhere in the world.

There is also another miracle of Quran that there are thousands of people around the world; they have memorized the whole Quran by heart. Those people called HAFIDH. These Hafidh belongs to different sects of Islam and these Hafidhs remained in Muslim history of all the times. This is another guarantee about Quran that Quran is preserved with the people that people been memorizing whole Quran throughout entire history of Islam until this day. We do not find any other book that people got to memorize that book A-Z.

Quran is very interesting book; it feels to readers and reciters that God [Allah] is talking directly to the mankind. Quran contains the different stories of previous nations, people used to ask the Prophet about them and the verses of Quran were revealed, sometimes God [Allah] himself told those stories to his Prophet to tell the people to learn the lessons. Some part of Quran belongs to that situation which Prophet Muhammad faced in his time, by that time Jews and idol worshiper were around the prophet. Quran addressed directly to them. There are also Islamic laws explained in Quran.

Basically Quran is the book which addresses to human kind and draw the attention of humankind to one true God [Allah]. There are so many verses always remind people about the Day of Judgment and warn people to save themselves from hell fire.

We would like to share some verses of holy Quran here.

Humankind what evil has deceived you about your Gracious Lord.(82:6)

[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving. (67:2)

Has there [not] come upon man a period of time when he was not a thing [even] mentioned? Indeed, we created man from a sperm-drop mixture that We may try him; and We made him hearing and seeing. Indeed, We guided him to the way, be he grateful or be he ungrateful. (76:2-3)

There are so many beautiful verses to share but we don’t want to make this article longer.

Quran announces this very clearly …

Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing of who is [rightly] guided. (16:125)

There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taught and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing. (2:256)

Because of that, we decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors. (5:32)

We would like to end this article with one prophecy of Quran.

The Byzantines have been defeated. In the nearest land. But they, after their defeat, will overcome. Within three to nine years. To Allah belongs the command before and after. And that day the believers will rejoice. (30: 2-4)

In above verses we find great prediction of Quran. We know that when Quran was being reveled Rome and Iran were two super powers and there was ongoing fight between them. Quran announced the defeat of Rome and told that after few years again victory of Rome over Iranians will happen. This is what exactly happened in history.

May Allah (swt) guide those who seek for truth and send your blessings to holy prophet Mohammad and his Ahlalbait.
