The Noble Al-Qur'an

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِِ

The Qur'an (Al-Qur'an) is a message from Allah to humanity. It was transmitted to us in a chain starting from the Allah The Almighty Himself (swt) to the angel Gabriel and to the Prophet Muhammad (saw).


The message was given to the Prophet (saw) in pieces over a period spanning approximately 23 years (610 CE to 622 CE). The Prophet (saw) was 40 years old when the Qur'an began to be revealed to him, and he was 63 when the revelation was completed. The language of the original message was in Arabic, but it has been translated into many other languages.

Al Qur'an also known from what i've think is the first and the last place where you can use as a guide to every question in our life. Al Qur'an has the answer to Sains, lifestyle and so many other things that was and will happen in our future.

The Qur'an is one leg of two which form the basis of Islam. The second leg is the Sunnah of the Prophet (saw). What makes the Qur'an different from the Sunnah is its primarily its form. Unlike the Sunnah, the Qur'an is quite literally the Word of Allah, whereas the Sunnah was inspired by Allah but the wording and actions are from the Prophet's. The Qur'an has not been expressed using any human's words. Its wording is letter for letter fixed by no one but Allah The Almighty (swt).

Prophet Muhammad (saw) was the final Messenger of Allah to humanity, and therefore the Qur'an is the last Message which Allah has sent to us. Its predecessors such as the Torah, Psalms, and Gospels have all been superceded. It is an obligation - and blessing - for all who hear of the Qur'an and Islam to investigate it and evaluate it for themselves. Allah has guaranteed that He will protect the Qur'an from human tampering, and today's readers can find exact copies of it all over the world and in so many places. The Qur'an of today is the same as the Qur'an revealed from Allah to Prophet Muhammad (saw).

I hope now you all understands if not much but at least a bit about what is Al Qur'an and its content. Al Qur'an is a very usefull resources to us and our future refferrences.
In next writing i will reveal to you all the content, the benefits of the "surah" and the translations of the "surah" and some other thing about the Al Qur'an. INSYAALLAH.

WASSALAM.
