Q & A

  • What are the three main reasons presented in the script that make the Quran a miracle?

    -The three main reasons are: 1) The Quran is a literary masterpiece, 2) It contains historical information that could not have been known at the time of revelation, and 3) It has been preserved in its original form.

  • Why is the Quran considered a literary masterpiece according to the script?

    -The Quran is considered a literary masterpiece because it was conveyed by an illiterate person, was spontaneously created without a drop in linguistic quality, and could not be mimicked or improved upon by the poets of the time, despite their strong oral tradition.

  • What was Al-Waleed ibn Al-Mura's response when he was asked to critique the Quran?

    -Al-Waleed ibn Al-Mura, despite being a hater of Islam, admitted that the Quran's language bears no resemblance to poetry or prose, and that it has a sweetness and charm that is unmatched.

  • How does the Quran's narration of historical events differ from the Bible?

    -The Quran contains accurate details not found in the Bible, such as referring to the ruler of Egypt during Joseph's time as 'ixos' instead of 'pharaoh', which aligns with historical findings that the rulers then were not pharaohs but foreign kings.

  • Why is the Quran's accurate historical information significant?

    -The Quran's accurate historical information is significant because it suggests knowledge that was not available in the Bible at the time of Muhammad and could not have been learned through the limited sources of Judeo-Christian knowledge available to him.

  • What is the significance of the Quran being preserved in its original form?

    -The preservation of the Quran in its original form is significant because it demonstrates divine preservation, as the Quran itself contains verses where God promises its preservation, and it has remained unchanged for over a millennium and a half.

  • How does the consistency of the Quran's oral transmission compare to historical texts?

  • Why is it considered unlikely for an illiterate man to create the Quran as described in the script?

    -It is considered unlikely for an illiterate man to create the Quran because it is a linguistic masterpiece with intricate details of lost knowledge and complex theology that has remained unaltered for over a thousand years, suggesting divine intervention rather than human authorship.
