All right guys, welcome back to the channel if you're new man with Bobby guys. Today we're going to react to why is the Koran a miracle by the people of Islam. I'm very curious about this video because since I read the whole Koran, the feeling that it truly is a miracle didn't leave me. However, to put it in words was quite the struggle for me. If you watched my video, I read the Koran as a Christian. Then you would have seen that I talked about the structure, about the simplicity, about the depth of the Koran. But I simply couldn't put my finger on it, what it truly is that makes the Koran so miraculous. It seemed like something invisible to me. I'm very curious to find out why the Koran is so miraculous. Let's have a look. I love this recitation. In Islam, faith is not blind. It is based off knowledge and rationality. This is something that disturbed me with incristianity, especially when it comes down to yet again the trinity. We are not allowed to use our God-given intellect or God-given rationale or God-given logic. But if God created us with rationale and with logic, then there must be an instinctual understanding of God. When Muslims are asked why they believe Islam is the truth, they respond by saying the Koran is the proof. But when they are asked to explain how, it can be difficult to give a satisfying answer because there is just so much that can be said. So how is the Koran a miracle? Allah revealed a verse in the Koran affirming that he would protect his revelation from ever being corrupted 1400 years ago. If you think about it, this is a huge claim to make. It is an enormously huge claim to make because if we look at the other scriptures, their piece is missing or they have been corrupted as Islam itself says. No matter where you are in the world, the Koran is one and no two Muslims disagree. In another verse, Allah says that he has made the Koran easy to learn and asks if there will be anyone that will learn it. Every single generation, since the Koran was revealed, has had memorizers, making it the only book to have passed down in human memory. I remember when I was a little child, my dad put the TV on and showed me, said look at this, those Muslims. This kid is not even five years old and he can recite their book. We Christians cannot do it. So yet again, it's absolutely impressive to see that the structure of the Koran makes it easy to memorize. Considering most Muslims don't understand the language, the speed at which they can learn the Koran is almost unbelievable. To give you an idea, imagine memorizing a page of Chinese in a matter of half an hour. Today there are more than 100 million memorizers of all its 600 pages, word for word, letter for letter. You might be asking, why is the Koran in Arabic if most Muslims aren't Arabs? Well, Allah tells us why in many verses. In one, He says to remove any crookedness or confusion, and in another, so that it may be perfectly clear. We now know that Arabic is one of the most eloquent languages that delivers incredible depth and precision with the least amount of words. In Arabic, one single word can translate into a full descriptive sentence. If the Koran was in English, it would have to be thousands of pages thicker, if not more, just to carry a close enough meaning. On that note, I want to share something with you. If we look at the English language, we can check how many words it has. And as you can see, it has 171,146 words. However, if we look at the Arabic language, we will see that Arabic has 12.3 million words. That is absolutely wild. That must mean that every Arabic word has so much more intrinsic meaning. The effect that the Koran has on those who listen to it being recited can easily be seen from the thousands of reaction videos on YouTube. It literally brings people to tears, despite them not understanding the language. Guess what? Allah explicitly told us that people would react like this 1,400 years ago. I don't want to play tough, but the last time I cried must have been when I was 12 years old or so. I would really like to see if it has the same effect on me. In the fourth chapter, Allah presents an open challenge. He says, Do they not reflect upon the Koran? If it had been from anyone other than Allah, they would have found in it much error and contradiction. Fourteen centuries of critics have passed and not a single error or contradiction can be found, despite great advancements in knowledge. Allah has placed many scientific subtleties in the Koran for us to reflect on. For example, the big bang that describes the creation of the universe starting from a single point, or the expansion of the universe that was discovered in the last 50 years. To give you an idea of how much of a breakthrough this was, Stephen Hawking said that this was one of the great intellectual revolutions of the 20th century. This was explicitly mentioned in the Koran 14 centuries ago. More signs include every living thing being made of water, and mountains as pegs, standing firm and stabilizing the earth from shaking. Amazingly, Allah mentions two seas that meet but don't mix, one fresh and sweet, the other salty and bitter, and between them being a barrier. Allah states how the human is formed, which we have found is in the correct chronological order. Particularly, Allah describes the embryo in shockingly accurate detail. The famous Professor Keith Moore admitted this information could not have been known by man 1400 years ago. Of the historical signs in the Koran include the preservation of the pharaoh of Egypt. Both the Bible and the Koran mention that he drowned after Moses peace be upon him part of the sea. But the Koran also makes a very unique statement not found in the Bible. Allah says that he will preserve his body and save it as a sign for future generations. The Koran describes the location where the Persians defeated the Romans as the lowest land. Not only have historians derived that the battle took place near the Dead Sea, scientists have confirmed that this location is in fact the lowest point of land on earth for 17 meters below sea level. The Koran is full of stories of previous prophets. Not many people know that Moses peace be upon him is the most frequently mentioned name. The Koran also narrates many stories about Jesus Christ peace be upon him. Mary the mother of Jesus is regarded as one of the best women to walk the face of the earth and has a whole chapter to herself. Why these story signs? Because there is no way they were plagiarized. In that time there was not a single library or translation of the Bible available. There are also many linguistic miracles in the Koran. I'm not too sure about this I will have to research myself from what I heard is that the Arabian peninsula was filled with pagans but Christians and Jews as well. Modern research shows that the Koran follows a remarkable structure called ring composition. Let's take chapter two of the Koran as an example. This chapter can be split into nine groups based on the theme of the group. The first group mirrors the last group, the second group mirrors the second to last group and so on. What's more is that there are sub-rings inside each group. In other words rings inside of rings. If we look at group eight we find yet another ring inside of that ring. There are also countless other occurrences in the Koran such as the word day in its singular being mentioned 365 times and the word month 12 times. The word life is mentioned the same number of times as death. Angels the same number as devils. Good deeds the same as bad deeds and belief the same as disbelief. That's absolutely amazing man. I don't know exactly why I have this obsession with symmetry but when I looked at the ring structure this was absolutely amazing to me and now hearing that even the words mirror each other and the days are 365 times mentioned the month's 12 times. There's absolutely mind blowing to me. The Koran describes death, the day of judgment, heaven and hell in such vivid detail. In fact you can hardly find a page in the Koran that doesn't mention the day of judgment. All of that whilst presenting a complete way of life for us to follow. In Islam anything that causes harm is not allowed and everything that is beneficial and good is encouraged. Why is there harm? Because life is a test. Allah says in the Koran he who created death and life to test which of you are best indeed. Islam develops your character. It teaches you how to carry yourself and how to be in control. Islam protects and empowers women. It eliminates racism, terrorism and all oppression. That is an absolutely valid point. As always I keep it transparent here on my channel. I used to have racial prejudice but after I read the Koran it felt lifted off me. I had prejudice against the Muslims. I talked about this on my channel. The Muslims where the enemies for me come in from the Balkan. I associated Muslim with Turk, Muslim with Albanian, Muslim with Arab and this is why I had prejudice towards those people. After reading the Koran that prejudice, that hate even was lifted off my heart. It was absolutely beautiful. A good Muslim is one who people feel safe around from their actions and words. One who people trust and one who people look up to. A huge part of understanding why the Koran is a miracle is understanding how it was revealed. The Koran came down over 23 years in spoken form. It was not written down. Once verses came down the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him recited them and his companions memorized them. Unlike any other book the Koran did not go through an editing process. Once the verse was spoken it was done. That was the final version. The verses were not revealed in order starting from chapter one verse one two three and so on. The chapters and verses were revealed out of sequence. Furthermore they could not be planned ahead of time. They were revealed as a result of life experiences that were out of the Prophet's control such as enemies challenging him or the believers asking him life questions. To summarize the Koran has been perfectly preserved and unchanged for 14 centuries whilst excelling linguistically, scientifically, historically and mathematically. It has a profound impact on those who listen to it and is memorized and recited by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. It brings forth a complete way of life and fills the heart with peace and purpose. Humanity is yet to rise to its challenges as Allah promised and it's safe to say that no matter what angle you look at the Koran it shows no weakness. Allah says if you are in doubt then produce even a chapter like it. Then he says call upon your witnesses. In other words go ahead work in a team gather all of humanity and try your best. He then seals the challenge by saying if you do not and you will never be able to. 1400 years have passed and no book or text or speech in any language comes close to competing with the quality, eloquence and perfection of the Koran. A lot of people think if they follow Islam they're going to deprive themselves of things they would have otherwise enjoyed. Actually the opposite is true. Allah tells us that if we live life by His book burdens are lifted and life becomes so much better and easier. The freedom peace and harmony found in the heart of a true Muslim cannot be described until it is experienced. Allah has given us countless signs. Will we continue turning our backs? All right guys and this is it for today's video. Here I was just telling you about that I cried the last time when I was 12. No I'm not crying but I have to admit this video was very very moving. I haven't felt such a heavy heart in a long time. Truly watching this video brought back all the memories from me reading the Koran. It was absolutely beautifully done. That being said this video was a clear reminder for me personally that I want to get back to the Koran and read it one more time to understand more about the Koran and of course Islam. Guys if you like this video I say it every single time please let me know in the comment section that you do enjoy my work here and that you want me to continue. On top of that you can post videos that you want me to react to. All right this is it for today. If you like the video leave it a thumbs up.
