Definition of the Holy
Quran
It is the miraculous words of Allah, that were revealed
to our Prophet Muhammad’s heart (peace be upon
him). It is written between two covers, conveyed to us
by At-Tawator and challenges humankind by its shortest
Surah. We worship Allah by reciting it.

 

Quran the words of Allah

At-Tawator

It is an extensive transmission of a certain narration
, (i.e. so huge number of narrators report it), at every
a single step in the chain of narration ( Isnaad) , from the
beginning of the chain to its end, that it is inconceivable
that they all lied or made a mistake.
How has the Prophet (peace be upon him)
delivered the Qur’an to the Ummah (nation)?
The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) delivered the Noble
Quran to the Ummah through two methods:
1-Written transmission (recorded).
2- accurate exact oral transmission (delivered through voice).
Already, the Quran has reached us by the two ways mentioned
above in tawator manner.

him. If there was an omission or an error, the Prophet used to correct it. And
thereafter I would announce it to the people.” [Related by
