How to prove quran is authentic.
Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,
As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.
(May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)
One of our brothers/sisters has asked
this question:
Salaams Brother,
During a general conversation with a non Muslim at work
(in positive sense), he asked me what’s the authenticity of Quran? I didn’t
quite know how to respond to his question…
(There may be some grammatical and spelling
errors in the above statement. The forum does not change anything from
questions, comments and statements received from our readers for circulation in

Answer:
How to prove quran
is authentic
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear
witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His
Messengers.
Respected sister in Islam, the question of your non-muslim
colleague regarding the ‘authenticity’ of the Glorious Quran has one (or both)
of two facets:
Thus sister, depending on the state of the person’s
denial, his/her question regarding the ‘authenticity’ of the Glorious Quran
will have a different response. If you
could kindly clarify where exactly is the person’s ‘bone-of-contention’, we
will strive our absolute utmost, if Allah Helps us, to present the Truth of the
matter to the person.
Just for your information, we are attaching two answers
from our archive (6715 and 4794) which might help you address the question of
your colleague until we hear from you again, Insha Allah.

Answer:
Quran from lucipher
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear

If my memory serves me right, ‘Lucifer’ is the name
assigned in the current Bible of the Christians to the ‘angel’ who apparently
disobeyed God and was cast out of the heavens……a loose representation of the
Quranic and Islamic version of the evil and accursed Shaytaan, Iblees.
Your
Question: ……can u prove quran is not from lucipher?
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 41 Surah Ha
Mim As Sajdaah verse 2-4:
This (Quran) is a Revelation from the
All-Compassionate, the All-Merciful Allah. A Book whose verses are well-expounded, an Arabic Quran for the people who want to
understand, and a giver of good news and a warner.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 18 Surah
Kahf verse 1-3:
All praise is for Allah Alone, Who has
sent down this Book (Al-Quran) to His Servant (Mohamed (saws)), and assigned nothing crooked to it. This Book says everything directly, so that he may warn the people of the severe
chastisement of Allah and give good news to the believers, who do righteous deeds, that they will have an excellent reward.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verse 99:
We (Allah) have sent down to you
Revelations that clearly expound the Truth, and none but the
disobedient reject them.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 26 Surah
Shuaraa verses 191-195:
The fact is that your Lord is Mighty, as well as Merciful. This (Quran) has been revealed by the Lord of the
Worlds! The trustworthy Spirit (Jibrael
a.s.) has come down with it upon your (Prophet Mohamed’s (saws)) heart,
so that you may become one of those who are (appointed by Allah) to warn (the
people) in plain Arabic language.
Beloved brother in Islam, logic, wisdom, intelligence,
common sense, and even the law of every court of this world, dictates that the
onus of producing the proof always lies on the one who brings forward an
accusation! If one were to get up today
and challenge something which is formally accepted by all people, the onus of
producing the proof would always lie upon that person! For example, if I were to say that books like
‘Macbeth’ or ‘Romeo & Juliet’ were not written by Shakespeare, the onus of
producing the proof of my accusation would obviously lie upon me!
Dear and Beloved Brother, man says that the world today has
changed since the Revelation of the Quran 1400+ years ago! But Allah is our witness, the mentality of
the disbelievers has not changed even one single bit!!! When the Noble Prophet (saws) declared that
He was appointed a Prophet of Allah and was receiving Revelations of the Quran
from The Lord Most High, the disbelievers in his (saws) mission 1400 years ago
posed the exact same questions which some people pose today! ….that the Quran is not from the Lord God Who Created, but
either Prophet Mohamed (saws) fabricated it himself, or was inspired by the
‘Shaytaan’ or Jinns, etc.’
Glory be to the Lord Who Revealed the Glorious Quran in
Truth to His Last and Final Messenger (saws)!
Allah is our witness brother, the answer that the Lord gave to the
objections and challenges and accusations of the disbelievers 1400+ years ago
are as valid today as they were then!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 11 Surah
Hud verses 13-14:
Do they (the disbelievers) say, “He (Mohamed
(saws)) has invented the Book himself?” Say to them, “Very well then, if it is so,
then bring ten fabricates Surahs like this! And you may call to your assistance whosoever
you can except Allah, if you speak the
truth! Now if they (your false gods) do
not come to your help, you should know
that this Book has been revealed with the Knowledge of Allah, and that there is no true deity other than
Allah. Do you then surrender to this?”
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verse 23-24:
And if you be in doubt whether the Book We have
sent down to Our Servant is from Us or not, then produce, at least, one
surah like this. You may call
all your associates to assist you and avail yourselves of the help of any,
other than Allah. If you are genuine in
your doubt, do this! But if you do not
do this, and you can never do this, then fear the Fire which has been prepared
for the disbelievers, and which shall have men and stones for fuel.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 4 Surah
Nisaa verse 82:
Do they not ponder over the Quran? Had it been from any other than Allah, surely
there would have been many contradictions in it.
For all those who accuse or doubt the Glorious Quran was
not revealed by Allah Subhanah, the Lord All-Wise challenges them to do one of
three things if they are indeed truthful:
Allah is our witness brother, the challenge that our Lord
Most High posed to the disbelievers in the Quran has stood the test of time for
1400+ years since its Revelation; and Allah is our witness brother, it will
stand the test of time till the very end of time itself:…… for never ever can
anyone in creation produce something the like of which our Lord Most Supreme
has Revealed; nor can one find even only one contradiction in the whole of the
Glorious Book!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 17 Surah
Isra verse 88:
Declare this! ‘Even if human beings and the
jinns should co-operate with one another to bring forth a book like the Quran,
they would never be able to bring anything like it, even though they all helped
one another!”
After absolutely humiliating and frustrating the false
accusations and challenges of the disbelievers, Allah Subhanah reveals the true
reason, intention, and mentality of those who ardently strive to disbelieve:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 33:
We know that what they say grieves you (O
Prophet (saws)). But it is not you whom
they charge with falsehood! These
wicked people are in fact, denying the (very) Revelations of Allah!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah Anaam
verse 7:
(O Prophet) even if We had sent down to you a
Book written on paper, and even if they
had touched it with their own hands, the
disbelievers would have said, “This is nothing but manifest sorcery!”.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 157-158:
Now that a clear Proof, a Guidance and Blessing (The Quran), has come
to you from your Lord, who can be more
unjust than the one who treats Our Revelations as false and turns away from
them? We will inflict the severest
torment on those who turn away from Our Revelations because of their
aversion. Do the people now await that
the angels should come down before them?
Or that your Lord may Himself come down?
Or that the manifest Signs of your Lord should appear?
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 30 Surah
Rum verses 58-60:
We have set forth in this Quran every sort of
argument to make the people understand;
but whatever ‘aayah’ you may bring, the disbelievers will certainly say,
“You are following falsehood”. Thus
does Allah seal up the hearts of those who understand not. So, patiently perservere; for surely the
promise of Allah is True. And let not
those who have no certainty of faith, shake your firmness.
Then finally, Allah Subhanah, after all His Perfect arguments
Declares the punishment for those who even after this refuse to believe:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 34 Surah
Saba verse 5:
As for those who strive hard to discredit Our
Revelations, for them is a painful
torment, most humiliating.
And in His Supreme Mercy and Grace, the Lord Most Gracious
consoles the heart of the Prophet (saws) and those who have believed and tells
them exactly how to deal and reply to those disbeliever who, after having been
given the Message in the best manner still ardently refuse to believe:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 10 Surah
Yunus verses 40-44:
Some of these people will believe in (The
Quran), and others will not. Your Lord knows these mischief-makers very
well indeed. If these people deny you,
say to them: “I am responsible for my deeds and you are for yours. You are not accountable for what I do, nor am I for what you do.” There are many among them who hear what you
say, but will you make the deaf to
listen to you, even though they be
incapable of understanding this? Then
there are many others among them who see you.
But will you show the way to the blind,
even though they be bereft of sight?
The fact is that Allah does not in any way wrong the people, but they wronged themselves!
Your
Question: …..How can i explain him?
Dear and beloved brother, the Lord Creator Himself
Declares in Truth in His Own Book that He Himself is the Blessed Author of this
Glorious Quran……if any in creation doubts or has reason to believe that the
Glorious Quran is from any other than the Lord Most High…..either he brings and
presents his evidence to support his accusation, or simply accept the challenge
of the Lord and produce even only one Surah like unto the Quran!
And if the person cannot do it, and Allah is our witness,
they can never do it, then let him hold his peace until he is presented to
account for his accusation in the Presence of the Lord Most Majestic Most
Supreme on that Inevitable and Tumultuous Day of Judgment!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verse 23-24:
And if you be in doubt whether the Book We have
sent down to Our Servant is from Us or not, then produce, at least, one
surah like this. You may call
all your associates to assist you and avail yourselves of the help of any,
other than Allah. If you are
genuine in your doubt, do this! But if
you do not do this, and you can never do this, then fear the Fire which has
been prepared for the disbelievers, and which shall have men and stones for
fuel.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only
due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me
alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is
the Only Source of Strength.
Your brother and
well wisher in Islam,
Burhan
Answer:
Which religion is
truth
In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His
help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide,
and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear
witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam,
no dai, nobody!) worthy of
worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His
slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.
Beloved brother, before we address your various concerns
regarding the different beliefs and religions, at the outset we need to clarify
one huge difference that exists between the two major religions: Christianity
and Islam.
Allah says in the Holy Quran in Chapter 67 Surah
Al Mulk verse 2:
He (The Creator) created death and life that He
may test you, to see which of you is the best in deeds.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 21 Surah
Anbiyaa verse 35:
35 Every soul shall have a taste of death: and We test you by
evil and by good by way of trial: to Us must ye return.
Contrary to the Christian belief that man was sent to this
earth as a punishment for the sin committed by their common parents Adam and
Eve, the Quran guides that man was not sent on the earth as a punishment, but
rather the Lord Decreed a short time period of one life for him on this earth,
revealed His Books of guidance through His appointed Messengers, and put man
through good and evil conditions only as a test and a way of trial….to see who
amongst them does accepts and obeys His Guidance and does good, and who amongst
them rejects Him, His Guidance, and thus does evil.
The All-Knowing, All-Wise Lord bestowed two things upon
His best creation (ie. mankind) which He did not bestow upon any in His Supreme
Creation, and thus put mankind to a test:
Whoever amongst man studies and ponders over the
innumerable wonders and Signs in the various creations of the Majestic Lord,
and uses his bestowed intelligence and power of reasoning to understand his
mission of creation, recognize His Supreme Lord and Creator, and of his own
‘free will’ chooses to submit his will to the Will of his Creator, and chooses
to live his life in accordance with the guidance of his Creator, passes the
test of life and is promised the Eternal Mercy, Grace, and Rewards of Allah
Subhanah.
And whoever amongst man uses his bestowed intelligence and
power of reasoning to do everything else but does not recognize or denies his
Supreme Creator, refuses to submit his will to the Will of His Creator, and of
his own ‘free will’ chooses to live his life in accordance with any guidance
other than that of His Supreme Creator, miserably fails the test of life and
will have a severe accounting in the Presence of His All-Mighty and Majestic
Lord on an Inevitable Day.
Your Statement: As a Christian the core belief
is god sent is only begotten son to reveal his message of love and compassion.
he was killed so we could be saved from our sins. And believing Jesus was not
god come to us as a man is unforgivable.
Beloved brother, we could give you enough evidence from
the Doctrines and Scriptures of both the presently available Bible and the
Glorious Quran which would prove that the Noble Messenger of the Lord, Jesus,
was the son of Mary…and not the son of the Lord Creator, Who created everything
in existence….but since that is not our present discussion we will discuss this
in detail at a later stage, if the Lord Wills.
If one uses even simple common sense, and logic, and even
a basic sense of justice….one would realize that any law of the world which
prescribes punishment to anybody else except the one who committed the crime…..
any good, intelligent person with even an iota of justice in his heart would
scream out and say that such a law is supremely unjust!
If I were to commit a crime, and the law prescribes
punishment to anybody else for my crime…it would have to be an unjust
law!!! If I were to commit a crime and
the law prescribes punishment even to my own begotten son…..it would have to be
an unjust law!!!
But the Christian belief that our common parents Adam and
Eve committed a sin, and the Lord prescribed punishment for that one sin
committed by our common parents to billions and billions of their descendants
….is something that absolutely defies logic and common-sense!
And if that alone was not injustice enough, the Lord sends
His own (supposedly) begotten son to earth as a man to suffer and be crucified,
deeds which would forgive all the sins of all the descendants of Adam and
Eve!
Logic, and common sense, and justice dictates that one who
does good should receive the rewards of that good; and one who does evil should
alone bear the punishment of the evil he did.
Thus:
Thus my beloved brother, both the core beliefs of the
religion of Christianity which state that man was sent to earth as a punishment
for the ‘eternal sin’ committed by their common parents, and the suffering and
crucifixion of the ‘son’ of God as a form of repentance for the sins of others
…. both defy and deny and are against the very concept of intelligence, logic,
common-sense, and justice.
Your Question: Is there any proof that Jesus
was not gods divine son
Beloved brother, truth demands that the onus of proof lies
upon the one who makes the claim! If I
were to claim that I am the son of Mother Teresa, the onus of providing the
evidence for my claim would be upon me!
If one were to claim that the sun or the moon or the mountain is the son
of the Lord Creator, then the ones of proof should be on the one who makes such
an absurd claim!
Beloved brother, you would be surprised to know that even
the currently available Bibles, in all its forms, versions, and manifestations,
…. not a single verse in any of the available Bibles of any sect or belief in
Christianity state or declare that Jesus is the son of God! Never ever did the Noble Jesus ever claim to
be the son of God, nor does any verse in even the currently available Bibles
give rise to such a claim or belief of Jesus being Divine or the son of God!!!
What should surprise you even more is that the word or
concept of ‘trinity’ which is so central to the Christian belief, does not even
exist or find mention in the Bible!!!
Thus the supposed divinity of Jesus, or his being the son
of God, or the very concept or even the term of ‘trinity’ …..are all
self-invented theories and fabrications which someone invented and created long
after Prophet Jesus left this earth for his Heavenly Abode. All of the three beliefs which are so central
to the Christian belief have absolutely no basis to the Truth or reality, nor
are these beliefs consonant with the Christian Scriptures!
But the refutations of all the three fabricated theories
of the Divinity of Jesus, of his being the Lord’s son, and that of ‘trinity’
find mention and explained in detail in the Last and Final Revelations of the
Lord……the Al-Quran:
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 112 Surah
Ikhlaas verses 1-4:
1 Say: He is Allah the One and Only;
2 Allah, The Eternal Absolute;
3 He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;
4 And there is none like unto Him.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 4 Surah
Nisaa verses 171-172:
171 O people of the Book! Commit
no excesses in your religion: nor say of Allah aught but Truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no
more than) a Messenger of Allah and His Word which He bestowed on Mary, and a
Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His
Messengers. Say not
"Trinity": desist!: it will be better for you: for Allah is
One Allah: Glory be to Him!: (far Exalted is He) above having a son! To Him belong all things in the heavens and
on earth. And enough is Allah as a
Disposer of affairs.
172 Christ disdaineth not to serve and worship Allah nor do the Angels
those nearest (to Allah): those who disdain His worship and are arrogant He
will gather them all together unto Himself to (answer).
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah
Ale-Imraan verses 45-48:
45 Behold! The Angels said
"O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will
be Christ Jesus the son of Mary, held in honor in this world and the Hereafter;
and of (the company of) those nearest to Allah.
46 He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity and he
shall be (of the company) of the righteous."
47 She said: "O my Lord!
How shall I have a son when no man hath touched me?" He said: "Even so: Allah createth what
He willeth; when He hath decreed a plan He but saith to it `Be' and it is!”
48 And Allah will teach him the Book and
Wisdom, the Law and the Gospel.”
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 19 Surah
Maryam verses 88-93:
88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has
begotten a son!"
89 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most
monstrous!
90 At if the skies are ready to burst, the earth to split asunder, and
the mountains to fall down in utter ruin.
91 That they should invoke a son for (Allah)
Most Gracious!
92 For it is not consonant with the Majesty of (Allah) Most Gracious
that He should beget a son.
93 Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must come to
(Allah) Most Gracious as a servant.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verses 115-116:
115 To Allah belong the East and the West; whithersoever ye turn there
is the presence of Allah. For Allah is
All-Pervading All-Knowing.
116 They say: "Allah hath begotten a son"; Glory be to
Him. Nay! To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and
on earth; everything renders worship to Him.
117 To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth; when
He decreeth a matter He saith to it: "Be"; and it is.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 5 Surah
Maidah verses 72-73:
72 They do blaspheme who say: "Allah is Christ the son of Mary!” But said Christ: "O
children of
73 They do blaspheme who say: ‘Allah is one of three in a Trinity’: for
there is no god except One Allah. If
they desist not from their word (of blasphemy) verily a grievous penalty will
befall the blasphemers among them.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 5 Surah
Maidah verses 17-18:
17 In blasphemy indeed are those that say that Allah is Christ the son
of Mary.
Say: "Who then hath the least power against Allah if His Will were
to destroy Christ the son of Mary, his mother, and all everyone that is on the
earth? For to Allah belongeth the
dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between. He createth what He pleaseth. For Allah hath power over all things."
18 (Both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are sons of Allah
and His beloved." Say: "Why
then doth He punish you for your sins?
Nay ye are but men of the men He hath created: He forgiveth whom He
pleaseth and He punisheth whom He pleaseth: and to Allah belongeth the dominion
of the heavens and the earth and all that is between: and unto Him is the final
goal (of all)."
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale
Imraan verses 59-60:
59 The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam: He created
him (Adam) from dust then said to him: "Be" and he was!
60 The Truth (comes) from Allah Alone; so be
not of those who doubt.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 5 Surah
Maidah verses 116-118:
116 And behold! (On the Day of Judgment) Allah will say "O Jesus,
the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men
`worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of Allah"? He (Jesus) will say: "Glory to
Thee! Never could I say what I had no
right (to say). Had I said such a thing Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart though I
know not what is in Thine. For Thou
knowest in full all that is hidden.
117 Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say:
‘to Worship Allah my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst
I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up, Thou wast the Watcher over
them and Thou art a Witness to all things.
118 If Thou dost punish them they are Thy servants: if Thou dost forgive
them Thou art the Exalted the Wise.!
Your Question: To make it more complicated
there are many other religions like Buddhism and Hinduism. They have their own
set of beliefs that say anything else is nonsense. How can anyone be sure what
they belief is the truth.
A very simple and basic exercise and test needs only to be
done to determine which amongst the religions and beliefs in the world are True
and which are otherwise!
Lets assemble (for arguments sake) the best and most
recognized scholars of each of the major religions or beliefs prevalent in the
world today….be it Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Jainism, Sikhism, Jewism,
Christianity, Islam, etc.
And then ask these respected scholars each a few simple
questions:
Q-1: Do each of you have a Holy Book or
Scripture which you follow?
The Hindu scholar will present his Veda, or Purana, or
Bhagwad Geeta; the Buddhist scholar will present his Book of Buddha’s
teachings; the Sikh scholar will present his religious book Guru Granth Saheb;
etc…. and the Jewish scholar will present his book the Torah; the Christian
scholar his Bible and the Muslim scholar the Quran.
Q-2: Are these books which you follow
Divine, or the Words of the Lord God Who Created?
The Hindu scholar will declare himself that his book is
not divine or the word of the Creator, but are the words of a wise man like
Valmiki, etc.; the Buddhist scholar will testify himself that their book is the
words of their wise man Buddha; the Sikh scholar will declare himself that
their book is the words of their leader Guru Nanak, etc. etc.
Each of these scholars will themselves declare and testify
that the book they follow is neither Divine nor the Words of the Lord
Creator…but are the words of their respective religious leaders.
The Jewish scholar will declare and claim that the book
they follow, the Torah, is indeed Divine and a Revelation from the One and Only
Lord God Who created. Similarly, the
Christian scholar will present His Bible and claim it is Divine and the Word of
God, and the Muslim scholar will present the Quran and claim that it is Divine
and the Word of God.
All the other religious scholars will themselves testify
that their holy book is neither Divine nor the Word of the Lord Creator, but
was written by a wise human being….and because they themselves do not claim
their holy book to be divine, they are eliminated from any further questioning!
Thus, the only three of the several religions of the
world, Jewish, Christianity and Islam are the only ones who even claim to
possess the Word of the Creator in a book form which they follow.
Q-3: Ask the remaining three scholars
whether the book that is available with them in their hands is the exact
verbatim same Revelation of the Lord which was revealed on their respective
Prophets?
The Jewish scholar will himself testify and explain that
the original text of the Torah or the Old Testament which was revealed on their
Prophet Moses does not exist today in its original form! He will further explain that in time the
original text which was revealed on the Prophet Moses was destroyed, distorted,
altered, changed, etc. and what they have amongst them today is only what is
left and preserved from the Original Torah in addition to the works and words
of their religious scholars. But the
Jewish scholar will himself testify to the fact and the truth that the Original
Revelation of the Torah which was revealed by the Lord Creator upon Prophet
Moses is not available with them today!
Similarly, the Christian scholar will testify that the
original text of the Gospel which was revealed in Truth by the Lord God on
Prophet Jesus does not exist today in its original text. Depending on which version of the Bible (King
James, or the Orthodox, Roman Catholic, Protestant, etc.) or which edition (1
through 16) the scholar holds, he himself will confirm that the Bible that is
available today is a collection of what is preserved from the Old Testament and
the Gospels which were written by the apostles of Christ or men named Mark,
Matthew, Luke, and John!
Thus the Christian scholar will himself testify to the
fact and truth that the Original Revelation of the Gospel which was revealed in
Truth by the Lord God upon the Prophet Jesus is not available in its original
form today!
But ask any muslim scholar of any sect or school…and he
will claim that the Quran available today is the exact verbatim original
Revelation which the Lord God revealed on His Last and Final Prophet Mohamed
(saws). Not even an alphabet (leave
alone a word, or phrase, or sentence, or paragraph) of the Original Revelation
of the Quran has been altered or changed or doctored or moved or added or
subtracted from the Revelation which was revealed upon Prophet Mohamed
(saws)! The Muslim scholar will claim
that the Quran which is amongst them today is the exact verbatim Word by Word
the Very Words of the Lord Who Created.
Thus my beloved brother, even a simple litmus test
eliminates all the available and prevalent religions of the world except Islam,
from themselves laying claim that the Books and the Scriptures they follow are
the original, verbatim, exact, very Words of the Lord Who Created.
All the other religions do not even themselves claim that
their scriptures are Divine or the Very Words of God! It is Islam and the muslims alone who claim
to have with them the Very Words of the Lord God, absolutely intact in its
original text….thus all one has to do is to read and study this Divine Book
themselves and determine for themselves whether the claim made by the muslims
is indeed true or false!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 16 Surah
Nahl verse 89:
We have sent down to you this Book, which makes
everything plain, and is a
guidance, blessing and good news to
those who have surrendered themselves entirely.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 41 Surah Ha
Mim As Sajdaah verse 2-4:
This is a Revelation from the
All-Compassionate, the All-Merciful
Allah. A Book whose verses are
well-expounded, an Arabic Quran for the people
who want to understand, and a giver of good news and a warner.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 18 Surah
Kahf verse 1-3:
All praise is for Allah Alone, Who has sent down this Book to His Servant
(Mohamed (saws), and assigned nothing
crooked to it. This Book says
everything directly, so that he may warn
the people of the severe chastisement of Allah and give good news to the
believers, who do righteous deeds, that they will have an excellent reward.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 17 Surah
Isra verse 88:
Declare this! ‘Even if human beings and the
jinns should co-operate with one another to bring forth a book like the
Quran, they would never be able to bring
anything like it, even though they all
helped one another!”
If the logical and wise guidance of the Glorious Quran are
not sufficient enough for one to be convinced that the Quran is indeed from the
Lord God Who Created, then for such ardent disbelievers, the Lord God has
Himself put forth this challenge:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 11 Surah
Hud verses 13-14:
Do they say, “He (Mohamed (saws)) has invented the Book himself?” Say to them, “Very well, if it is so,
then bring ten fabricates Surahs like this! And you may call to your asistance whosoever
you can except Allah, if you speak the
truth! Now if they (your false
gods) do not come to your help, you should
know that this Book has been revealed with the knowledge of Allah, and that there is no true deity other than
Allah. Do you then surrender to this?”
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah
Baqarah verse 23-24:
And if you be in doubt whether the Book
We have sent down to Our servant (Mohamed (saws)) is from Us (Allah) or
not, then produce, at least, one surah
like this. You may call all your
associates to assist you and avail yourselves of the help of any, other than Allah. If you are genuine in your doubt, do this! But if you do not do this, and you can never do this, then fear the Fire which has been prepared
for the disbelievers, and which shall
have men and stones for fuel.
If even after such arguments of the Lord, one were to still
persist in denying the Last and Final Revelation of the Lord God, then they
should await the torment the Lord Most High, Most Supreme has prepared for
those who deny Him, His Last and Final Messenger (saws), and His Last and Final
Revelation:
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 7:
(O Prophet) even if We had sent down to you a
Book written on paper, and even if they
had touched it with their own hands, the
disbelievers would have said, “This is nothing but manifest sorcery!”.
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 33:
We know that what they say grieves you. But it is not you whom they charge with
falsehood! These wicked people are in
fact, denying the Revelations of Allah!
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 6 Surah
Anaam verse 157-158:
Now that a clear proof, a Guidance and Blessing, has come to you from
your Lord, who can be more unjust than
the one who treats Our Revelations as false and turns away from them? We will inflict the severest torment on those
who turn away from Our Revelations because of their aversion. Do the people now await that the angels
should come down before them? Or that
your Lord may Himself come down? Or that
the manifest Signs of your Lord should appear?
Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 10 Surah
Yunus verses 40-44:
Some of these people will believe in (The
Quran), and others will not. Your Lord knows these mischief-makers very
well indeed. If these people deny
you, say to them: “I am responsible for
my deeds and you are for yours. You are
not accountable for what I do, nor am I
for what you do.” There are many among
them who hear what you say, but will you
make the deaf to listen to you, even
though they be incapable of understanding this? Then there are many others among them who
see you. But will you show the way to
the blind, even though they be bereft of
sight? The fact is that Allah does not
in any way wrong the people, but they
wronged themselves!
If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and
commands of Allah and His Messenger (saws),
one can be assured of never ever being misled; but if one believes, obeys and follows any
other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be
assured of being led astray.
Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only
due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me
alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is
the Only Source of Strength.

well wisher in Islam,
