BarĀhĪn-e-a H madiyya — Part Four 44 1 S u rah an-Na h l, Part Number 14 — اَمَّنِا ٗهُمِّلَعُي ٌرَشَب When they discovered that the Holy Quran not only contains those accounts, but also profound verities, they expressed a second opinion: 2 S u rah al-Furq a n, Part Number 18 — َو ٗهَناَعَا ِهْيَلَع ٌمْوَق َنْوُرَخٰا Meaning that, a large group of people has come together to compile the Holy Quran, since it could not be the work of one man. And when they were given the reply in the Holy Quran that if it had indeed been written collectively by a group of learned men, schol- ars, and poets, then they should also seek help from a similar group of people and produce the like of the Quran so that their truthfulness should be proven. And when they could not respond to this challenge, they put forward a third opinion, which was that the Holy Quran was composed with the help of the jinn, and it could not be the work of man. Then God gave such a reply that they were left completely dumb- founded, as He says: — َو اَم َوُه ىَلَع ِبْيَغْلا ٍنْيِنَضِب. َو اَم َوُه ِلْوَقِب ٍنٰطْيَش ٍمْيِجَّر َنْيَاَف َنْوُبَهْذَت 3 [ S u rah at-Takw i r, Part Number 30 ] Meaning that, the Quran contains all kinds of matters relating to the unseen, and to disclose so much is beyond the ability of the jinn. ْلُق ِنِٕىَّل ِتَعَمَتْجا ُسْنِاْلا َو ُّنِجْلا ىٰۤلَع ْنَا اْوُتْاَّي ِلْثِمِب اَذٰه ِنٰاْرُقْلا اَل َنْوُتْاَي ٖهِلْثِمِب َو ْوَل َناَك ْمُهُضْعَب 4 S u rah Ban i Isr a ’ i l, Part Number 15 — ٍضْعَبِل اًرْيِهَظ 1.
