The Holy Quran is the divine scripture or sacred text of the religion of Islam. Muslims believe and prove that the Quran is the literal word of God. Quran was revealed to Allah’s final messenger Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the Angel of Allah, Gabriel, to bring humankind out of the darkness of polytheism and ignorance and into the light of Islam.
The revelations took place partly in Makkah and partly in Madinah. The message was revealed in Arabic, the language of the people it was initially addressed to, even though the message was ultimately for the whole of humanity. Allah says in the Quran “Indeed, I revealed it as an Arabic Quran.” (Quran 12:2).
Allah says in the Quran “It is We Who have sent down the remembrance (i.e. the Quran) and surely, We will guard it from corruption.” (Quran 15:9)
“And We have sent down to you (O Muhammad) the Book (this Quran) in truth, confirming the Scripture that came before it and trustworthy in highness and a witness over it (old Scriptures).” (Quran 5:48)
“And We have sent down to you the Book (the Quran) as an exposition of everything, guidance, a mercy, and glad tidings for those who have submitted themselves.” (Quran 16:89)
“… had it (the Quran) been from any other than Allah, they would have found therein much discrepancies.” (Quran 4:82)
