The Holy Quran is a Blessing and Treasure
Aozobillahiminishaitaanirajeem
Dear Sisters, Asalamo Alaikum
Today the topic of my speech is the Holy Quran and how it is a blessing and treasure. There are so many things I could say about this subject, but because of time limitations I will mention a few.
The Holy Qur'ān is the most beautiful thing Allah has ever given us to read. This precious revealed book is very meaningful to all Muslims around the world. It has given us a chance to learn our history of ancient times in Islam that were really powerful to us and that made our religion grow peacefully and larger.
But, of course, if you do not know the language of Arabic, always read the translation in English or the language you speak in to find out the meaning of these beautiful verses recited. One thing I want others to know about our Holy Book is that this is the only book that is the most truthful and does not have people as our God and has very dominant beliefs.
In the Holy Qur'ān, there are many verses worthy of note. Indeed, every single verse in the
Holy Qur'ān contains an important message. One reads the Holy Qur'ān and tries to grasp these messages daily. But what is the Qur'ān exactly? Often, the words we hear to describe the Holy Qur'ān is that it is a book of guidance for all Muslims. While this indeed proves to be true, the simplest way to define the Qur'ān is to look for the definition within the very words which make up the Holy Qur'ān. The verse which one should look at when defining the true purpose of the Holy Qur'ān is:
"This is a perfect book; there is no doubt in it;
It is a guidance for the righteous." [2:3]
This is the verse that one finds in the first pages of the Qur'ān and though one might not realize it upon first reading the verse, it is the definition of the Holy Qur'ān. With those simple, clear, yet powerful words, God explains the reason for this book, which He has brought to the Muslim people and its purpose in the lives of Muslims. After one has read this verse, never again should they question the Qur'ān's competence or teaching.
Although this verse may not be the absolute first verse of the Holy Book, it is most definitely one of the introductory verses to the Qur'ān. This verse is God's promise that the guidance found in the Holy Qur'ān is true. It is a verse that should make you trust God, for nothing in the Qur'ān is contradictory. All guidance, advice, and rules which God has given are not to be questioned, but followed. Fourteen hundred years after its revelation, the Holy Qur'ān has not failed in the promise found in this verse.
Much of the guidance the Holy Qur'ān has given, has proved to be scientifically true. One such example of the truthfulness of the Holy Qur'ān is in 52 Al-Hilāl the case of alcohol. In the Holy Qur'ān, the drinking of alcohol has been
