in Arabic, could only have
been written by ONE of 3 possible sources:
1. the
Arabs
2.
Mohammad (peace be upon him)
3. God
(Allah)
Besides the above
mentioned sources,
Learn Quran
couldn't possibly have been written by ANYONE else.
No
other source is possible, because Quran is written
in pure, rich, and poetic Arabic, which was not
known to anyone other than the above mentioned
sources, at that time. The Arabic language was at
its peak in expression, richness, vocabulary,
artistic, and poetic value during the time the Quran
was being revealed. Anyone speaking the classical
Arabic ( the Arabic of Quran at the time it was
revealed) would argue that a non-Arab entity
couldn't possibly have written such an extensive and
brilliant piece of literature in the Arabic
language. Quran could only have been written by an
Arabic speaking entity. An entity, who's knowledge,
style, vocabulary, grammar, and way of expression
was so powerful that it impacted the entire Arabian
peninsula, the east, the west, and continues to
impact people all over the globe today!
At
no other time, in the history of Arabic language,
had it ever achieved its peak in expression,
literature, and development, than the time of Arabia
during the 6th Century, the time when Quran was
being revealed. At no other time in the history of
Arabic language had the language ever achieved its
highest potential than the time of Arabia during the
6th Century, the time when Quran was being
revealed. The language reached its peak in
richness, artistic value, and poetry, during that
time. With the Arabic language at its peak, and the
best of Arabic writers, poets present in Arabia, it
is impossible that a non-Arabic speaking entity
would write a book like Quran and have such a
dynamite impact on the Arabs!
So only an Arabic
speaking entity could have write Quran. With that in
mind, we're left with three choies:
1 - the
Arabs wrote it
2 -
Mohammad (pbuh) wrote it
3 - Allah (swt)
wrote it
Lets examine the
three choices one by one.
(1) Arabs
Wrote it?
What Quran teaches goes DIRECTLY against the pagan
Arab culture, religion, and gods, that existed
before the Quran was revealed. Quran condemns idol
worshipping, but the Arabs, loved their idol gods,
and worshipped them regularly. Quran raised the
status of women; the Arabs treated women next to
animals. The Arabs would never write something that
goes against their most important belief of idol
worshipping. Quran goes against most of the social
habits (such as backbiting, slandering, name
calling, etc) which the Arabs were heavily indulged
into. For example, the Arabs would call insulting
nicknames such as Abu Jahal (the father of
ignorance). Quran condemns and prohibits taking
interest on money, whereas, the Arabs freely levied
heavy interest rates in loans and businesses. Quran
condemns and prohibits Alcohol drinking, whereas,
the Arabs consumed alcohol freely. The Quran
condemns and prohibits gambling, whereas, the Arabs
were some of the worst gamblers. The Arabs would
never write something so comprehensively against
just about all of their customs and culture and
religious beliefs, as the Quran is.
During the time of the Holy Prophet (pbuh), the
Arabs would indulge in all the social habits that
the Quran condemns and prohibits. How can Arabs then
write something that would negate their entire
society's norms and ideologies?
Did a group of Arabs or an individual Arab write
Quran? Perhaps a rebel Arab Bedouin, or a society's
misfit, or someone with different ideals and norms
decided one day to write Quran? The answer to those
questions are also 'no'. Because, if we read Quran,
we notice that there is no author! No individual
has his/her name written on the cover of Quran!
Anytime an individual writes a book, he/she writes
his/her name on the cover. The author's name always
appears on his/her book, and there is always an
author who is credited for writing that book. No one
in the history of the world has EVER claimed to have
written the Quran, nor anyone's name ever appeared
in front of the Quran as been the 'author'. This is
the only book in the world without an author. No one
in the world has ever been accused of writing the
Holy Quran, except the Prophet Mohammad (peace be
upon him), by non-muslims.
Quran has no author, and no group or individual in
Arabia ever claimed to have written it, nor any
group or an individual recited, taught, and
explained Quran except the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh)
and his followers. The Prophet Mohammad (peace be
upon him) was the only Arabian who first practiced,
explained, and preached Quran, and ended up making a
lot of Arab tribes enemies. Any historian, Muslim or
non-Muslim would argue that the only possible source
of Quran can be the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh), the man
responsible to recite it, teach it, and explain it
to the people of Arabia. In fact, many historians
today still think that only Mohammad (pbuh) could
possibly have written it.
This leads one to
conclude that the Prophet (pbuh) must have written
it!
(2) Mohammad
(pbuh) wrote it?
First, he was illiterate !! How can an illiterate
person come up with such a rich, poetic,
intellectual, and inspiring text that it rocked the
entire Arabia?
Mohammad (pbuh) never went to school! No one taught
him. He had no teacher of any kind in any
subjects. How can he have the knowledge of all the
science, astronomy, oceanography, etc that is
contained in the Quran? (For example, the mention of
ocean currents, stars, earth, moon, sun and their
fixed paths in Soorah Rahman; and many other
scientific statements that are found in Quran, that
I cannot state in this short article)
When Quran was revealed, the Arabic language was at
its peak in richness, poetic value, literature,
etc. Quran came and challenged the best literature
in Arabic, the best poetry in Arabic of the time.
Mohammad (pbuh) being illiterate couldn't possibly
have come up with something so immaculate that it
even exceeded the best of poetry, and literature in
Arabic at the time of the language's PEAK
development. Arabic language had never been so rich
in expression, poetic value, vocabulary, and variety
in literature, as it was in the time of Quran. At a
time like this, Quran came and exceeded the best of
Arabic in all aspects of the language: poetry,
literature, expression, etc. Any classical Arabic
speaker would appreciate the unbeaten, unchallenged,
and unmatched beauty of the language of Quran.
An
illiterate man is simply not capable of writing such
a book.
Mohammad (pbuh) had no reason to come up with
something like Quran, and cause the entire society
of Arabia to become his enemy. Why would he do
something like that? Why would he write something
going against almost all of the norms of the
society, and lose his family, relatives, friends,
and other loved ones, and not to mention all the
wealth he lost
Quran was revealed over a period of 23 years! A very
long time! Is it possible for someone to maintain
the same exact style of Arabic speech , as
demonstrated in Quran, for over 23 years?
Also, what the prophet Mohammad (saaw) used to say
is recorded in what we call his Hadith (Sunnah). If
we look at the Arabic style of the Hadith, and
compare it with the style of Quran, we can clearly
see that they are clearly DIFFERENT, and
DISTINGUISHABLE Arabic styles. The prophet (saaw)
spoke in public. It does not make sense that a man
has two UNIQUE, Distinguishable, and completely
different styles of speech in public. Yet another
reason why Mohammad (saaw) couldn't possibly have
written Quran.

SARAH AND HAGAR
The Jews get their
cock-eyed racism from their Holy Bible, where they
are told their father, Abraham, had two wives -Sarah
and Hagar. They say that they are the children of
Abraham through Sarah, his legitimate wife; that
their Arab brethren have descended through Hagar, a
"bondwoman", and that as such, the Arabs are
inferior breed.
Will anyone please
explain the anomaly as to why Muhammed (pbuh) (if he
is the author) chose this Jewess for such honour?
The answer is simple - HE HAD NO CHOICE - he had no
right to speak of his own desire. "IT IS NO LESS
THAN AN INSPIRATION SENT DOWN TO HIM." (Qur'an,
53:4).
Prof. Marshal
Johnson, Professor and Chairman of the Department of
Anatomy and Director of the Daniel Baugh Institute,
Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia
He says: "The
Quran describes not only the development of external
form but emphasizes also the internal stages -- the
stages inside the embryo of its creation and
development, emphasizing major events recognized by
contemporary science.... If I were to transpose
myself into that era, knowing what I know today and
describing things, I could not describe the things
that were described. I see no evidence to refute
the concept that this individual Mohammed had to be
developing this information from some place, so I
see nothing in conflict with the concept that Divine
Intervention was involved..."
