The Importance of the Qur'an and Muhammad to Islam

Islam is for the entire mankind and to say “The Qur’an is just and

ordinary book and Muhammad (PBUH) is just an ordinary man”. Would be a

great slander against this religion. To prove my point that the Qur’an

is not just an ordinary book I have the following points:

The Qur’an cannot be an ordinary book because millions and millions of

people in the world read it. Even when a Muslim has a problem, the

first thing that they turn to is the Qur’an, because basically the

Qur’an has a solution for every problem that faces a human in a

lifetime. There is also no other book in the world that has the

solution to all daily problems. It just can’t be an ordinary book.

The Qur’an cannot be an ordinary book because there would be a

contradiction in the book itself. It has been about 1400 years and not

1 single letter or punctuation has been changed, and this will nit

change until the day of judgement. No other scripture has this

guarantee as the Bible, Gospel and the Torah have all been changed.

There is also only one version of the Qur’an and this is the one that

everyone turns to, everyone reads, everyone obeys. Many people also

have the great honour of knowing the whole Qur’an by heart. This holy

book cannot be just a normal book. Do you really think that people

today like me and you go and learn a storybook all by heart? Your

probably thinking NO! The Qur’an is a one of a kind and nothing will

ever overcome the great fact.

The Qur’an is no ordinary book because Allah created it for the whole

of mankind. He himself made it guidance for all humans regardless of

race and religion. Many people read the Qur’an and are inspired by

it’s teachings, so they always turn to the Qur’an for guidance to any

situation, that comes to ones mind. If Allah made it for guidance then

don’t you think that’s why many people are being guided towards the
