All that we
have seen so far shows us one clear fact: the Qur'an is such a book that all
the news related in it has proved to be true. Facts about scientific subjects
and the news given about the future, facts that no one could have known at
the time, were announced in its verses. It is impossible for this information
to have been known with the level of knowledge and technology of the day. It
is clear that this provides clear evidence that the Qur'an is not the word of
man. The Qur'an is the word of the Almighty God, the Originator of everything
and the One Who encompasses everything with His knowledge. In one verse, God
says on the Qur'an:
"If it had been from other than God, they would have found many
inconsistencies in it." (The Qur'an, 4:82)
Not only are
there no inconsistency in the Qur'an, but every piece of information it
contains reveals the miracle of this divine book more and more each day.
What falls to
man is to hold fast to this divine book revealed by God, and receive it as
his one and only guide. In one of the verses, God calls out to us:
"And this is a Book We have sent down and blessed, so follow it
and have fear of God so that hopefully you will gain mercy." (The
Qur'an, 6:155)
In His other
verses, God remarks:
"Say: 'It is the truth from your Lord. Let anyone who wishes to,
believe, and let anyone who wishes to, disbelieve.'" (The Qur'an, 18:29)
"No indeed! Truly it (the Qur'an) is a reminder, and whoever wills
pays heed to it." (The
Qur'an, 80:11-12)
