The Noble Qur'an, as the last revealed book of God, is extant in its original form. Allah Himself guaranteed its preservation. The entire Qur'an was recorded in written form during the lifetime of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) on pieces of palm leaves, parchments, bones, and other suitable surfaces.

Moreover, there were tens of thousands of his followers who memorized the whole Qur'an, and the Prophet (pbuh) himself used to recite it to the angel Gabriel once a year and twice when he was about to die.

After the Prophet's death, Abu Bakr, the first caliph, oversaw the collection of the Qur'an into one volume by the Prophet's scribe, Zaid ibn Thabit. This volume remained with Abu Bakr who, when he was about to die, entrusted it to his successor, Umar ibn Al-Khattab who, in turn, passed it onto Hafsa, the Prophet's wife. It was from this original copy that Uthman, the third caliph, prepared several other copies and sent them to different Muslim territories

The Qur'an was preserved so meticulously because it is was to be the book of guidance for all humanity forever. Thus it does not address only the Arabs, even though it was revealed in their language.

  • @beepbeepimaification , YES, also cure the cancer from radiation and new energy. you religious people what do you care about the FUTURE, all you care is the HISTORY and PAST. you DONT believe in GOD my friend, you BELIEVE in RELIGION.

  • @moistfaucet BENEFIT? more like science was an abonination that gave use nukes and atoms to kill mankind...even tho im not religious i would still take religion over science anyday...GOD DIDN'T CREATE US TO DO HIS JOB AND DECIDE WHO LIVES AND WHO DIES!!!!! aleast religion teaches love and compastion..science teaches that we dont need god "we are god"

  • @Ajbignob LOL

  • @TexasAaron99 So you read a hate filled book of shit and then decieded to become a muzzie. Are you retarded?

  • May Allah guide us all to the right path... ameen

  • @smokiepost I agree, truth does not need any defense but theres nothing wrong in defending it. That said, im a convert to Islam whereas once I was full of blind hatred for all thing muslamic. i then had the decency to read my enemies book and the rest is now history. Even with so much crap being thrown at Islam, is still grows like wildfire hence your assertion that truth doesn't need any defense is indeed most true. it wasn't Muslims who made me convert, the book on its own was sufficient.

  • @moistfaucet Who was the father of optics? who gave us the decimal point? Who wrote the cannon of medicine? Where does the word cannon come from? The word adobe? The word alcohol? Who gave us the scientific method? Who worked out the tilt of the earth? Who was Averroes? Who was ibn sina?

  • Benefit in Science it save lives and contribute to the mankind. how about religion ? what benefit ? ...anybody do share. if not struggle and war what else ?

  • @TexasAaron99 Apparently what I said is over your head. "Truth needs no defense" - if Islam is truth then why do you and so many others desperately defend it? The truth never changes and is not intimidated, in spite of what you or I say. This applies for all religious dogma.

    My truth is your truth. Yet we argue over nonsense having nothing to do with truth. Why is that?

    Either way, I wish you a peaceful path and may you never be accused by your muslim brothers for any infraction.

  • @smokiepost I'm humbled by such an intellectual response lol yawn..

    U said: The truth needs no defense, yet you will kill to defend it?? LMAO!

    Whats self defense? What is justice? What is retribution and who has the right to exercise it? Do you even know what TRUTH is? Is yours all encompassing?

    Now that youve unwittingly(its not your fault)shot yourself in the foot, kindly try again & cite/assert something tangible so I can respond : )

    We may yet learn something from one another my friend..
