The Quran is the holy book of Islam, regarded as the literal word of God (Allah) as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) through the angel Jibril (Gabriel). It serves as a comprehensive guide for all aspects of life, encompassing spiritual, moral, social, and legal dimensions.
 
The Quran is not merely a literary work, although it is celebrated for its beautiful prose and eloquence in the Arabic language. It contains profound messages about the Unity of God, emphasizing that there is only One Supreme Being who is the Creator of everything and is worthy of worship. The Quran articulates the attributes of Allah, such as His mercy, compassion, and wisdom, and it provides a framework for understanding the relationship between the Creator and His creation.
 
In addition to its spiritual significance, the Quran includes narratives of past prophets and communities, offering lessons and guidance for humanity. It addresses various aspects of human existence, including ethical conduct, social justice, and the importance of family. The Quran also outlines the principles of worship, including the five daily prayers, fasting during Ramadan, and the giving of zakat (charity), which are fundamental practices in Islam.
 
The Quran is a clear and open book, free from doubt and contradiction, and it is intended to stimulate human intellect and reflection. It is considered a source of healing for both personal and societal issues, guiding individuals towards righteousness and away from wrongdoing. The Quran's teachings are meant to be a reminder of one's purpose in life and the ultimate accountability in the Hereafter.
 
Moreover, the Quran has been preserved in its original form since its revelation in the 7th century CE, with Allah promising to safeguard it from alteration or corruption. This preservation underscores its significance as the final and complete message from God to humanity, intended to guide people towards success in this life and the next.
