What is “The Holy Quran”?
The Qur’an is the most often-read book in the world. Revealed by
God to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the 7th century, and revered
by Muslims as being God’s final Scripture and Testament, its words have been
lovingly recited, memorized, and implemented by Muslims of every nationality
ever since.
The faithful are inspired, consoled often moved to tears by its
eloquence and poetic imagery, especially when recited aloud. And yet, the
Qur’an is unique in being the only Scripture that is free of scientific
inaccuracies, whose historical authenticity can be verified, and whose text has
been so carefully preserved that just one authorized version (in Arabic)
exists. Approximately the length of the New Testament, the Qur’an is also the
only holy book that can be memorized in its entirety by people of all ages and
intellectual abilities – including non-Arabic speakers – which Muslims consider
to be one of its miracles.
Why must we understand the Quran?
Will they not then ponder over the Quran, or is it that they have
locks on their hearts!? [Quran, 47:24]
(This is) a Scripture that We have revealed unto thee, full of
blessing, that they may ponder its revelations, and that men of understanding
may reflect.[Quran, 38:29]
The Quran is a guide to humanity which also includes
you, dear reader. Since none of us want to be misguided, it is paramount not
only to read or recite the Quran, but to understand and implement it in
our lives as well.
