2. What is the summarised message of the Quran? 

3. The traditional narrative of the Quran and it's origin. 

According to conventional Islamic belief, the Qurʾān was revealed by the angel Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad in the West Arabian towns Mecca and Medina beginning in 610 and ending with Muhammad’s death in 632 CE

The word qurʾān, which occurs already within the Islamic scripture itself (e.g., 9:111 and 75:17–18), is derived from the verb qaraʾa—“to read,” “to recite”—but there is probably also some connection with the Syriac qeryānā, “reading,” used for the recitation of scriptural readings during church services.  (Reference: Where does the Quran originate from?)

The Narrative about the Origin and Preservation of the Quran... (as summarized by Dr Jay Smith from Phander Films)

5. What Muslims claim about the Qur’an’s Preservation

  1. The Qur’an is uncreated and exists eternally on clay tablets in heaven (S.85:22)
  2. The Qur’an was sent down to Muhammad between 610 – 632 AD, though not written down fully (Al Bukhari 6:509)
  3. The Qur’an was completed by Uthman in 652 AD (Al Bukhari 6:510)
  4. The Qur’an is unchanged in the last 1400 years (Surahs 10:15; 18:27)
  5. The Qur’an is guarded by Allah (Surah 15:9)
  6. The Qur’an was finally canonized in 1924 AD, and made official in 1985

6. What the Qur’an says about its Preservation  (Hillali and Khan translation)

  1. No one can change the Qur’an (Surah 10:15) “And when Our Clear Verses are recited unto them, those who hope not for their meeting with Us, say: Bring us a Qur’an other than this, or change it. ”Say (O Muhammad) “It is not for me to change it on my own accord; I only follow that which is revealed unto me. Verily, I fear if I were to disobey my Lord, the torment of the Great Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)” 
  2. No-one can change Allah’s Words (Surah 18:27) “And recite what has been revealed to you (O Muhammad ) of the Book (the Qur’an) of your Lord. None can change His Words, and none will you find as a refuge other than Him.
  3. Allah will Guard the Qur’an (Surah 15:9) “Verily We: It is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur’an) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)”

7. What did Nabeel Qureshi think about this narrative?

8. Lately researchers have many questions about the Traditional Narrative...

More than one researcher (many of them Ex-Muslims) found in their textual criticism analysis that the Traditional narrative is rather a myth.


The Following videos look further to some of those Questions: 
  • Is the Quran complete and preserved? How does this book fair out against textual criticism analysis?
  • Join Al and Jay as they share the latest research discoveries done by scholars concerning the many critical issues and problems in the Quran. It expose some of the many damaging issues in the early Quranic manuscripts that will change the view on the Quran as we know it.
  • This is a series of shows covering six different areas related to the Quran, its compilation, preservation, and its earliest manuscripts.

9. Thus...Many Holes in the original narrative

Python and the Holey Quran (David Woods version)

Arguments for the Quran have been chopped to pieces in recent years. And yet Muslim apologists and scholars are pretending that nothing has changed. This reminds me of a scene from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," where the infamous "Black Knight" kept losing body parts, but insisted that everything was fine!
