The Final Messenger (4/4)

No one writes a book then tell others, “look at my book, it has no mistakes and it contains authentic information without a doubt, and I challenge you to bring something like it.” Rather, an author asks their readers to contact them regarding any mistakes so they can be taken into account in future editions.

But read what Allah said about His Holy book the Qur’an.

2. “This is the Book (the Qur’an), whereof there is no doubt.” [Qur’an Surah Al-Baqarah 2: 2]

41. “Verily, those who disbelieved in the Reminder (i.e. the Qur’an) when it came to them (shall receive the punishment). And verily, it is an honorable well-fortified respected Book (because it is Allah’s Speech, and He has protected it from corruption.”

42. “Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it: (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of all praise (Allah).” [Qur’an Surah Fussilat 41: 41-42]

If you read a book two or three times you often get bored and sometimes fed up. However, as far as the Qur’an is concerned, the matter is completely different. Millions of people recite the Qur’an hundreds of times, and a great number of them even memorise it – but amazingly they do not get bored. Each time they read and recite they feel as if they are reading it for the first time. They find deeper a meaning, a new understanding and a new renewed taste. You will not feel this until you try it.

This is not the case with other book. The Qur’an is essentially the speech of God, and this phenomenon clearly demonstrates the miraculous nature of the Qur’an and its divine origin.

Actually what you have been reading are excerpts from the holy book, the Qur’an, in its original language Arabic and its meaning translated into English.

The honesty and veracity of the Prophet is evident.

44. “And if he (Muhammad -peace be upon him) had forged a false saying concerning Us.”

45. “We surely would have seized him by his right hand (or with power and might).”

46. “And then We certainly would have cut off his life artery (aorta).”

47. “And none of you could have withheld Us from (punishing) him.”

48. “And verily, this (Qur’an) is a Reminder for the pious.”

49. “And verily, We know that there are some among you that belie (this Qur’an).”

50. “And indeed it (this Qur’an) will be an anguish for the disbelievers (on the Day of Resurrection).”

51. “And verily, it (this Qur’an) is an absolute truth with certainty.”

52. “So glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.” [Qur’an Surah Al-Haqqah 69: 44-52]

24. “Or say they: "He has invented a lie against Allah?" If Allah willed, He could have sealed up your heart. And Allah wipes out falsehood, and establishes the truth by His Word. Verily, He knows well what (secrets) are in the chests (of mankind).” [Qur’an Surah Ash-Shura 42: 24]

43. “And those who disbelieved, say: "You (O Muhammad) are not a Messenger." Say: "Sufficient as a witness between me and you is Allah and those too who have knowledge of the Scripture."” [Qur’an Surah Ar-Ra'd 13: 43]
