| The Noble Quran contains profound and exact statements
on a wide variety of subjects. It establishes and legislates principles and
regulations for the practical and ethical duties of the human being and for the
ordering and administration of society. It gives accurate account of future predictions,
anecdotes of past communities and Prophets, as well as Scientific truths unknown
at the time of revelation. However, slightest variation or contradiction whatsoever
is not to be seen in this great mass of material.
Every scientist and
researcher is liable to change from time to time, his attitude to scientific topics
under investigation and the opinions he bases on them. Relying on the knowledge
and conclusions he has accumulated, he may express a certain opinion on a given
topic at one time and later repudiate that opinion in the light of continuing
and more extensive research and the solution of certain problems. However, as
regards to Quran, although it was revealed over a period of twenty three years,
it is completely uniform and lacking in contradiction.
The uniformity,
unity and the consistency of the ideas in the Quran signify its coming from the
Unique One, Allah (swt). Quran says:

"Do
they not reflect on the Quran? If this book were from other than GOD, they would
certainly find much variation and contradiction in it". (4:82)
Since
everything in the world is in a state of growth andself-perfection, then the Qur'an
would of necessity lackharmony since it was revealed over a period of twenty-threeyears;
it would lack harmony that is if we were to supposethat it was the work of a man
rather than of a prophet. Thus,lack of contradiction in the Quran proves a Divine
hand in the its authorship. |
