UNDERSTANDING QURAN

Introduction

The Quran is not an ordinary book. It is the word of God transmitted to us through Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) . The communication between Muhammad (pbuh) and God was achieved through Angel Gabriel.   قُلْ مَن كَانَ عَدُوًّا لِّجِبْرِيلَ فَإِنَّهُ نَزَّلَهُ عَلَى قَلْبِكَ بِإِذْنِ اللّهِ مُصَدِّقاً لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَهُدًى وَبُشْرَى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ   2:97 Say: Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel-for he brings down the (revelation) to thy heart by Allah's will, a confirmation of what went before, and guidance and glad tidings for those who believe.   It is natural then for us to treat this treasure of information with great respect. The greatest respect one can show to the Quran is by reading it, understanding it, teaching it to others, and applying its message in one’s daily life. This cannot be achieved by placing it on a high ledge in the house where it collects.     فَلَا أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِ 56:75 Furthermore I call to witness the setting of the Stars,- وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَّوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ 56:76 And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if ye but knew,-       إِنَّهُ لَقُرْآنٌ كَرِيمٌ 56:77 That this is indeed a qur'an Most Honorable, فِي كِتَابٍ مَّكْنُونٍ 56:78 In Book well-guarded, لَّا يَمَسُّهُ إِلَّا الْمُطَهَّرُونَ 56:79 Which none shall touch but those who are clean: تَنزِيلٌ مِّن رَّبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ 56:80 A Revelation from the Lord of the Worlds. أَفَبِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَنتُم مُّدْهِنُونَ 56:81 Is it such a Message that ye would hold in light esteem?
