7 Reasons To Read Qur'an - Islam is the truth - 11-13-2004

7 Reasons to read Qur'an

by Shabir Ali

(1) Intimate:

It dares you to disprove it. How? It says that humans can not write a book like this even if they pooled all their resources together and got help also from the spirits. The Quran said this fourteen hundreds years ago and yet no one has been able to disprove it. Billions of books have been written - but not another one like the Quran.

(2) Incorruptible:

It is the only religious sacred writing which has been in circulation for such a long time and yet remains as pure as it was in the beginning. The Quran was kept intact. Nothing was added to it; nothing was changed in it; and nothing was taken away from it ever since it was completely revealed 1400 years ago.

(3) Unsurpassable:

The Quran is God's final revelation to humankind. God revealed the Torah to Moses, the Psalms to David, the Gospel to Jesus, and finally the Quran to Muhammad. Peace be upon all of them. No other book will come from God to surpass his final revelation.

(4) Indisputable:

The Quran withstands the test of time and scrutiny. No one can dispute the truth of this book. It speaks about past history and turns out right. It speaks about the future in prophecies and it turns out right. It mentions details of physical phenomena which were not known to people at the time; yet later scientific discoveries confirm that the Quran was right all along. Every other book needs to be revised to accord with modern knowledge. The Quran alone is never contradicted by a modern discovery.

(5) Your Roadmap for Life and Afterlife:

The Quran is the best guidebook on how to structure your life. No other book presents such a comprehensive system involving all aspects of human life and endeavor. The Quran also points out the way to secure everlasting happiness in the afterlife. It is your roadmap showing how to get to paradise.

(6) God's Gift of Guidance:

God has not left you alone. You were made for a reason. God tells you why he made you, what he demands from you, and what he has in store for you. If you operate a machine contrary to it's manufacture specification you will ruin that machine. What about you? Do you have an owner's manual for you? The Quran is from your function for success lest you fail to function. It is a healing mercy from God. It satisfies the soul, and cleans the heart. It removes doubts and brings peace.

(7) Your Calling Card to Communicate with God:

Humans are social creatures. We love to communicate with other intelligent life. The Quran tells us how to communicate with the source of all intelligence and the source of all life- the One God. The Quran tells us who God is, by what name we should address God, and the way in which to communicate with God. Are these not seven sufficient reasons for reading the Quran?

7 Reasons To Read Qur'an - Martini - 01-20-2005

(1) Intimate:

This is not a fair argument. What would a book like the Koran be? I can say the Bible is like the Qur’an but you might disagree. In that case, it would be just as fair for me to say that no one has, or ever will write a book like Moby Dick.

(2) Incorruptible:

Are you sure? Do you know for a fact that the teachings of Buddah have been changed? Do you know that various sacred Indian texts have been changed?

(3) Unsurpassable:

Since none of us can foretell the future, this point is moot.

(4) Indisputable:

I can dispute it easliy on many levels.

(5) Your Roadmap for Life and Afterlife:

Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush.

It seems that some people have not quite read what this forum is about. We are not here to debate or prove our religion to anyone. If you want to know about something then ask away, otherwise do not post. This board is not here to serve as a showcase for people to show how they do not like or agree with Islam. All are welcome to learn otherwise just go to one of those boards where the wanna-be intellectuals argue all day just to prove how clever they are.

This is the thunder before the storm.

Peace!

Funny. That's the number 1 classic out of context Quote for the Qur'an haters...tiresome. You should have done a bit more research into that one instead of just pasting it up there feeling proud. Once you actually look into the sections you are pasting especially above, instead of taking them from Anti Islam sites, pasting them here and then leaving it at that, you'll see how blatantly you can expose yourself as being a fool. Especially in regards to the above quote. Really that was poor, old and it's been finished by like every Islamic scholar, website, Debater or even student i can think of. Is this your first time doing this Qur'an hating stuff? Because that was a poor attempt, laughable. Just the way you put it there like "HAHA bet you haven't seen this one!!" Oh please.

Quote:This is not a fair argument. What would a book like the Koran be? I can say the Bible is like the Qur’an but you might disagree. In that case, it would be just as fair for me to say that no one has, or ever will write a book like Moby Dick.

Uhhh no, you're tripping over your own words, trying to inject sarcasm into the post to entertain yourself just leaves you looking ignorant, as opposed to shining your post with clever wordplay. You are not ignorant are you? You say...what would a book like the Qur'an be? Well the Qur'an is a revelation from God so...that's a good start in answering your Question. I'm fine with using the bible as an example it's the closest possible and makes sense to me. So don't instantly assume you can't use the Bible as an example because we wouldnt agree, just so you can put the 'Moby Dick' sarcasm in. Pathetic i deal with your type regularly.

So...is the Qur'an like the Bible? I've read both and am reading both now. You want to tell me the Bible compares to the Qur'an? If you do you're not being real to yourself, something you accused us of being. However we can debate on this, not in this post though, start a new topic comparing the two. But i'm not responding to that point in this post because that wasn't the point of this post.

Quote:Are you sure? Do you know for a fact that the teachings of Buddah have been changed? Do you know that various sacred Indian texts have been changed?

Historians the world over Muslim and non Muslim agree that no other religious book has remained for so many centuries with such a pure text. If you don't want to accept this then start another post. Personally when every Historian is telling you the same thing. Even those who wouldn't like the Qur'an, Chrsitian ones for example. I see it as your duty to disprove them to us, otherwise don't continue on this. You don't know who the Historians are? buy a book and find out. Then see how the majority agree, compared to other religious books, revelations etc the Qur'an is the purest. Whether they belive it is the word of God or not is different but see how they agree it is the purest, for whatever reasons they have. They may say simply because it is one of the newers ones etc. But see how they agree, and then write in your post why you disagree with these historians. You're going to need to research every religious book, scripture like they have, so you've got a bit of work on your hands. Get to it kid! [Image: biggrin.gif]

This is how i work with you now, remember i did try but you turned out to be the same as the other lot. All sarcasm and hate, no genuine questions or concerns.

Quote:(3) Unsurpassable:
Since none of us can foretell the future, this point is moot.

How the heck is the point moot. By using the 'no one can tell the future' excuse you have here. You've given up already. Is this because you know it can't be beaten? Lame. You're not even trying now, just going down the list popping off any old response. Come on work me here, challenge me at least. Someone can easily try and surpass it, the majority (whomever they may be) prove it has been surpassed then...that means someone would have surpassed it. It's like someone saying "this book i've written can never be improved on" and from this assuming that no one will ever be able to do it ever no matter what they do. Just because someone says it can't be doesn't mean you can't try. You and those like you are just too lazy to attempt to do it, because you know you'll probably fail. I say 'probably' for the sake of argument here, i'm Muslim so i know you'll fail, but i can be non Muslim for the sake of this and play your game. [Image: tongue.gif]

Quote:(4) Indisputable:

Well no offense Martini, but you haven't done a very good job so far. Bought the old classic Anti-Qur'an website accusations, been shot down in the posts you've put them in and then claimed we are "making up excuses" when we give you an explination. Is this you easily disputing as you say you can do? You're going to have to work harder, because you're not even close to "easily disputing" going by your posts here. [Image: rolleyes.gif]

wow, your type are getting even easier for me. Allhumdullilah. To any other non Muslims reading this, any good in this post is from all from Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) and the errors and mistakes are mine. Allhumdullilah

7 Reasons To Read Qur'an - Rock - 02-01-2005

I think there is one necessary and sufficient reason for all unbelievers to read the Quran with unbiased heart and with open mind.

Refer to holy Quran 46/10,what Allah(SWT) told Prophet Muhammed(pbuh)to say to the unbelievers from jews.

Allah said"Say: Have you considered if it is from Allah,and you disbelieve in it".

I think there is nothing in the world deserve to neglect a simple fact like this,if it is true what will they do in the day of judgement.The God descripe this in holy Quran 78/40

The god said"Surely We have warned you of a chastisement near at hand: the day when man shall see what his two hands have sent before, and the unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust! "
