Testimony of the Holy Quran — Page 82
T E S T I MON Y OF T HE HOLY Q U R AN 82 1 ٗهَّنِا ْنَم ِتْاَّي ٗهَّبَر اًمِرْجُم َّنِاَف ٗهَل َمَّنَهَج١ؕ اَل ُتْوُمَي اَهْيِف َو اَل ىٰيْحَي Thus the truth is that the person who does not recognize God Almighty can also not recognize the Holy Quran. Of course, it is also true that the Holy Quran has been revealed for guidance, but the guidance of the Quran is bound up with the being of that person upon whom the Quran was revealed or that person whom Allah appoints as his deputy. Had the Quran been sufficient by itself, God Almighty had the power to have the Quran inscribed through natural means on the leaves of trees or have it descend from heaven written out fully; but God Almighty did not do so. In fact, He did not send the Quran into the world until the teacher of the Quran had been sent. Open the Noble Quran and see how many verses there are where the Holy Quran addresses this subject: 2 ُمُهُمِّلَعُي َبٰتِكْلا َو َةَمْكِحْلا Meaning, that Noble Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, teaches the Quran and Quranic wisdom to the people. And then at one place it further states: 3 اَل ۤٗهُّسَمَي اَّلِا َنْوُرَّهَطُمْلا۠ 1. Verily, he who comes to his Lord a sinner—for him is Hell; he shall neither die therein nor live ( S u rah Ta H a , 20:75). [Publisher] 2. S u rah al-Jumu‘ah, 62:3 [Publisher] 3. S u rah al-W a qi‘ah, 56:80 [Publisher]
