The Prophet Hood of Muhammad (S.A.W.W) and Quran

    There are many non Muslims, we see abusing and making hurtful remarks for MUHAMMAD S.A.W.W the last messenger of ALLAH (swt). They argue over the prophet hood of MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w by saying that Islam is a false religion and MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w. wrote the book of Islam i.e. Quran himself. They go to the extent by calling Islam a fake religion and MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w a liar (na’uzubillah).



    But the thing is, if the prophet hood of MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w is proven to be wrong or false then the religion of Islam will be proven as false, which is not true. To prove it right and genuine, we have Quran and Sunnah as evidence but there are many non Muslims out there who will reject them at once.

    There is a better way to answer them and that is from their own fellows, who did not only accepted Islam as a true religion but also accepted and testified that Quran is not written by MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w and His prophet hood is also true.

    Michael Hart wrote a book about 100 most influential persons in history and the first person in his ranking was MUHAMMAD S.A.W.W. he gave this position to MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w by saying that HE was the only person who got huge support and success in the religion and in world. (His views can be found in his book, page no. 3).

    This shows that even non Muslims recognized, being unbiased, of course) that MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w got the success and the fellow ship as well as followers like no other man in the history, and this is very true, we can see that today Islam is the biggest religion with respect to its followers (1.4 billion). So we have this strong remark with us to show to those non Muslims who do not like to hear the Quranic or Islamic perspective.
    Then the other allegation comes from the non Muslims that Quran was written by MUHAMMAS s.a.w.w himself. Quran speaks about it but non Muslims do not pay heed to what Quran says but they only consider what their heart or mind says or they follow their priests for that matter.

    ALLAH swt says in Holy Quran 17:106
     "And (it is) a Quran which I have divided into parts in order that you (Muhammad) may recite it to the people gradually, and I have revealed it by successive revelation."

    MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w could not read or write because HE was illiterate. How could a person, who did not know how to read and write, write such a text which is termed as perfect and flawless and the only work of perfection in literature?

    4:82
    "Do they not consider (ponder) on the Quran? If it had been from anyone except Allah, they would surely have found in it much discrepancy (contradictions)."
    in another verse ALLAH swt says:

    Holy Quran says in 29:48
    “Neither did you (O Muhammad SAW) read any book before it (this Qur'an), nor did you write any book (whatsoever) with your right hand. In that case, indeed, the followers of falsehood might have doubted.”
     In the same verse, ALLAH swt has said the reason why MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w did not know the reading or writing when HE was given prophet hood, that if HE s.a.w.w was a scholar like few pagans of Makkah, they would have accused HIM s.a.w.w for writing the book down, but since they could not allege MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w for this, they started calling HIM magician and the Quran, the book of magic. Holy Quran describes this as in the following words;
    34:43
    “When our clear signs are rehearsed to them, they say, this is only a man who wishes to hinder you from the (worship) which your fathers practiced." and they say, this is only a falsehood invented!" and the unbelievers say of the truth when it comes to them, this is nothing but evident magic!

    So, Quran speaks about the origin and influence of this holy book, but surely non Muslims have their doubts, and to counter those doubts we can present the comments of those non Muslim scholars who spent their lives in literatures and came up with the result that QURAN is nothing but a divine source of knowledge and no human hand can write such a deep and perfect literature.

    F.F. Arbuthnot in his book, the construction of the bible and the Quran, said that the halt poetry and half prose of Quranic text is so perfect that several attempts have been made to copy this text but no one has succeeded to date.

    Similarly, H.A.R. Gibb, in his book Islam- a historical survey has challenged those people who reject the authenticity of  Quran by saying that if they are so sure that Quran is a man made work then they should produce 10 verses like it. And then he, being very sure, says that they cannot do so, so they should accept this as an evident miracle.

    So, even in the eyes of non Muslim scholars, Quran is not only a perfect text without any errors but also a miracle and they also are found challenging the anti-Muslim lobby to produce any work like Quran to challenge the status and the excellence of Quran. ALLAH swt has protected the status of MUHAMMAD s.a.w.w  and HIS revealed book in the following verse with the word;

    Holy Quran says: 36:69

    “And We have not taught him poetry, nor is it meet for him; it is nothing but a reminder and a plain Quran. “

    May ALLAH guide us and protect us from the falsehood, amin.
