A pproaching the West—137 The Verses of the Qur’ ā n are Signs of All ā h … These are verses [ ā y ā t—Signs] of the clear Book. (12:2, 26:3, 28:3) … These are the verses [Signs] of the Book that is full of wisdom. (10:2) … These are the verses [Signs] of the Book. And that which has been revealed to thee from your Lord is the truth, but most men believe not. (13:2) … These are verses [Signs] of the Book and of the illuminating Qur’ ā n. (15:2, [27:2]) And remember what is rehearsed in your houses of the Signs of All ā h and of wisdom. Verily All ā h is the Knower of subtleties, All- Aware. (33:35) And let them not turn thee away from the Signs of All ā h, after they have been sent down to thee; and call mankind to your Lord, and be not of those who attribute partners to Him. (28:88) The chapters (S ū rahs) of the Qur’ ā n and the entire Qur’ ā n are also referred to as comprising of manifest “Signs. ” This is a S ū rah which We have revealed and which We have made obligatory; and We have revealed therein clear Signs, that you may take heed. (24:2)
