What Is The Qur'an ?
The Qurโan (Arabic: ุงููุฑุขู) is the holy book of Islam. Muslims believe it is the literal word of God, revealed in Arabic to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over a period of about 23 years.
The Qurโan is considered the final revelation from God, confirming the original message given to earlier prophets such as Abraham, Moses, and Jesus (peace be upon them all). Muslims believe it has been perfectly preserved in its original language without alteration.
What The Qurโan Teaches ?
The Qurโan teaches belief in one God, who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and merciful. It calls people to worship Him alone and to live righteous, ethical lives.
It provides guidance on all aspects of life, including faith, worship, morality, and social conduct. It emphasizes values such as honesty, justice, compassion, patience, and humility.
The Qurโan also teaches that life is a test, and that every person is responsible for their actions. On the Day of Judgment, all people will be held accountable, and they will be rewarded with Paradise or punished in Hell based on their deeds.
In addition, the Qurโan contains stories of earlier prophets and past nations, offering lessons and reminders for humanity. Its message is meant for all people, guiding them toward truth, purpose, and a closer relationship with God.
