As a parent myself, I also wonder why your parent did not teach you about Islam and Qur'an?

My mom is always busy and my father is dead.I have trouble in buying books on Islam coz I don't have enough money.And I don't have any nearby person with whom I can discuss about these issues.

sure I faced such questions and at that time I was not able to answer beacause of my lack of knowledge.

...Umar رضی الله عنه did not tell the wording of that Ayaah آيه about stoning, nor did he tell that if there is a separate Ayaah آيه beside the Ayaah آيه in Surah Noor سورة النور and why it is not included in the Glorious Qur’aan. He only said that if there was no risk involved that people would put a blame on him of making addition in the Book of Allaah, he would have written this verse on a corner of the Qur’aan (al-Nasai’).

That clears up my confusion.

Thanks Preacher and everyone else.

An oridinary Arabic teacher or an Imam of your local Masjid may not be an ideal source to learn about Islam in most Muslim countries. The link I have provided you are scholars of Islam, while your Arabic teacher isn't. That is why he couldn't answer your question except giving you a generic answer.

I live in the West i.e. Darul-Kufr.

You are entitled to your opinion. Sadly majority of Muslims acts and reacts based on whim and facy, even they are told exactly what is in Qur'an and Sunnah. I see this all the time and does not surprise me. Because these are all singns of Qayamah.

You think on this why Muslims are slaughtered in wholesale rate around the world?

You think on this why Muslims are humiliated worldwide today?

You think on this why Muslims are in majority but still a weak Kafir can over power and scare them?

You think on this why Muslims are being literally raped (men and women) worldwide, while rest of the Muslims watch it happen with lull minds, not to mention offer help to Kuffar who are doing this.

You think on this why Allah said in Qur'an 3:26 وَتُعِزُّ مَن تَشَاء وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَاء and why Muslims' fate has become part of Divine Decree وَتُذِلُّ مَن تَشَاء ?

You will find the answer right looking in the mirror that it is no one elase but we, who are responsible of this all.

This onslaught against our learned and scholars has been going on for a long time to acuse them with things like I am subject of.


“ And that time will come soon, when the final battle will be fought, they will descend upon you from every direction. And those who have faith will stand firm, but those who don’t, will join them (your enemy). And so it shall be done that you would be cleansed of the munafiqs, only those will stand to fight for Allah who are strong in faith.”​

I respect you.

The Qur'an as the final book cannot be changed - no matter who tries, there are millions of copies of the One Qur'an. The fact that it is the unchanged word of Allah (SWT) is what makes Islam so special.
 
Can someone tell me a bit about the Tashkent and Topkapi manuscripts and how are they different from today's Qurans?

To how many Qurans was the change of pronounciation of Hajjaj applied?

Many Companions of the Prophet used to write down the revelation of the Qur’an on their own whenever they heard it from the lips of the Prophet. However what they wrote was not personally verified by the Prophet and thus could contain mistakes. All the verses revealed to the Prophet may not have been heard personally by all the Companions.

There were high possibilities of different portions of the Qur’an being missed by different Companions. This gave rise to disputes among Muslims regarding the different contents of the Qur’an during the period of the third Caliph Usman (r.a.).

Usman (r.a.) borrowed the original manuscript of the Qur’an, which was authorized by the beloved Prophet (pbuh), from Hafsha (may Allah be pleased with her), the Prophet’s wife. Usman (r.a.) ordered four Companions who were among the scribes who wrote the Qur’an when the Prophet dictated it, led by Zaid bin Thabit (r.a.) to rewrite the script in several perfect copies. These were sent by Usman (r.a.) to the main centres of Muslims.

Was the manuscript of Hafsha which was authorized by the Prophet saws to be corrected and then copied or just several copies were made from it without any correction?

What happened to the copies made by Abu Bakr?
I know I ask a lot of stupid questions but I want to get rid of all confusion.

As I already mentioned, Shaykh Azami points out that Al-Hajjaj changed nothing, instead he changed local Qur'an copies to match the authentic official copies made by Uthman rd.

This is answered in the Book by Azami. There are no real differences.

What happened was a copy was prepared by Abu Bakr rd by asking for two witnesses for each verse. These witnesses had to be people who had written down the verse under the supervision of the Prophet saws. THe comapnions had all memorized the Qur'an and had it written down, but to ensure complete accuracy they relied completely on material verified by the Prophet saws. This copy then entrusted to Hafsa.

later, Uthman rd did the whole process again because many more companions were present having returned from traveling/expeditions. This copy was compared with Abu Bakr's and they matched perfectly thus confirming that the Qur'an was perfectly preserved.

What happened to the copies made by Abu Bakr?

Having scrutinised the Uthmanic copies to be 100% accurate, they became the official copies of the state and all other copies were destroyed. Future copies were made from the Uthmanic copy.

It is explained in detail in Azami's book.

If you have any further interest in the subject then you should purchase the book.

Dear fellow forum user ,

It seems that you don't have any idea about the quran. Therefor you can not say that the quran had a history.
The quran is the true word of god. To prove that lets see anyone who can find a mistake in the quran. Also in the quran Allah(god) has challenged mankind to try to produce a verse like the verses in the quran. People have tried but failed.
Read some verses in the quran with the correct translation and it will show you that its from the knowlege of god since it has solutions for every place,time or event.
 
I know I know.I face questions and countless of them.Make sure I can answer straightaway and with evidence so I too ask questions.
