What Allah Says: When the Qur’an is read, listen to it with attention and hold your peace so you can receive Mercy. And bring your Lord to remembrance in your (very) soul with humility and in reverence without loudness in words in the mornings and evenings; and don’t be negligent. Those who are near to your Lord don’t hesitate to do Him service. They celebrate His praises and bow down before Him. (7:204-206) And We sent down the book to you so that you can make clear to (people) those things in which they differ and that it should be a guide and a mercy to those who believe. (16:64-65) Read what is revealed to you of the (Qur;an) and establish prayer because prayer restrains (a person from doing) shameful deeds. Remembering Allah is the greatest (thing in life). And Allah knows what you do. Don’t argue with the People of the Book (the Jews and Christians) except in a better way, unless it be with the ones who are doing wrong, but even then, only say "We believe in the revelation that came down to us and in the one that came down to you. Our God and your God is one, and it’s to Him we bow." And so We have sent down the book to you and some of the People of the book believe in it even as some of these (Arabs do). Only the faithless reject Our signs. And you, (Muhammad,) were not (able) to recite a book before this (book came) nor are you (able) to write it with your own right hand (because you don’t know how to write). If you (were a known writer before the Qur’an was revealed,) then the vain people could have doubted. Indeed, here are proven signs in the hearts of those who understand. Only the unjust reject Our signs. Yet they say: "Why are there no (miracles) sent down to him from his Lord?" Tell them, "The signs are indeed with Allah and I am indeed a clear Warner." Isn’t it enough for them that We sent down to you the Book which is read to them? Indeed, in it is a mercy and reminder to those who believe. (29:45-51)

Allah declares, "If this Qur’an were bestowed upon a mountain, it would crumble." (59:21) Indeed, the Holy Qur’an is a book of great power and miracles. No other book has been read or memorized more than the Qur’an. It moves people to action and brings joy and happiness to the hearts of young and old, rich and poor. The Qur’an is truly the miracle that the Prophet Muhammad (p) brought, and even he labeled it as a miracle. Many books have been written about the amazing qualities of the Holy Qur’an: from the perfect way it uses expressions to get its point across to the rhythm of its verses when recited aloud. As Allah said, "If it were a Book from anyone else besides Allah, you would have found many mistakes in it." (4:82) But there are no mistakes, and there are no errors in this book. It is a perfect book and people have spent their entire lives studying just one aspect of it. Some people examine the many scientific statements, others marvel over the perfect grammar, some look for the hidden meanings of its verses while yet others ponder over the solutions given for people’s problems in this life. A Guide for Hearts. The Qur’an is the most widely read and memorized book in the world, surpassing even the Bible, which has been in circulation far longer. It contains scientific statements which no human being could have known at the time of the Prophet Muhammad, (p) nor for over a thousand years later. As Allah indicates, "This Qur’an makes things clear." (See 24:34) Click Below for Amazing Scientific Facts!
