The Holy Qur'an. This verse is explanatory of the other verse: إِنَّا نَحْنُ نَزَّلْنَا الذِّكْرَ وَ إِنَّا لَهُ يَحْفِظُونَ 277 467 and furnishes the reply to the question how will the. Qur'an be safeguarded? God Almighty says that He will from time to time send successors of the Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him]. [Shahadat-ul-Qur'ān, Rūḥānī Khazā'in, Vol. 6, pp. 338-339]. Holy Qur'ān Possesses all True Signs of Divine Books. The certain and perfect and easy means whereby without any trouble, labour, obstruction, doubt, suspicion, error, or omission, true principles together with the arguments in support thereof, might be discovered with complete certainty, is the Holy Qur'an. There is no other book or other means through which this great object might be achieved. [Brāhīn-e-Ahmadiyya, Rūḥānī Khazā'in, Vol. 1 p. 77]. Now, O friends! I will describe to you the distinctive sign which sane reason has appointed for the recognition of a revealed Book is to be found only in the Holy Book of. God Almighty, which is the Holy Qur'ān. In this age all those qualities which should be found as a distinctive sign of God's Book are absent in other books. It is possible that they might have possessed those qualities in an earlier age, but they do not possess them now, and though, for the reason that we have set out, we regard them as revealed, yet even if they are revealed, in their that, they will be the rebellious.
