The Koran as a miracle is no doubt. The Muslim Scriptures were delivered directly by the great Lord, the Prophet Muhammad. The contents of this scriptures are very complete covering all things of life on earth and heaven.

Al-Quran as a miracle

Miracles means something extraordinary beyond human power. Like the Prophet Jesus having a miracle can heal the sick and raise the dead. Then the Prophet Moses was given a miracle in the form of a stick that could split the ocean.

Every Prophet has a miracle as evidence of the greatness of Allah SWT. Among the various miracles outside of human ability, why is the Koran called the biggest miracles? The following explanation!

Important aspects of why the Koran as a miracle

Every religion and belief have a holy book as a guide to the life of its people. But the Muslim scriptures are called miracles. The miracle of the Koran can be seen from various aspects.

First aspects of writing are full of beauty and uniqueness. Only the Koran uses Arabic language and letters, this is a special character. Muslims must be proud of themselves because this special character is also unique.

The second aspect that the Koran as a miracle is from the obedience where the style of language used is very interesting. If you read this holy carnival, there are certain rhythms that are arranged beautifully. There is even special art to read it and consist of various versions.

This reading art produces certain strains like a song without musical instruments. However, it does not change the meaning because the pronunciation remains the same as the short length and the recitation is still read.

The Koran as a miracle can also be seen from the density of its contents. This is clear because in one book already contains all cases in the sky and earth, the afterlife, both true, from the time of creation to the end of time.

The fourth aspect is the determination of in -depth and complete law. The laws and regulations therein cannot even be made by humans because of their limitations of their minds. God already knows human nature so as to reduce the rules in life.

From these regulations there are already sanctions for violations. For example, the recommendation to be grateful for the pleasure will be added to the favor, on the contrary if the kufr will come a painful punishment. This is in QS Ibrahim verse 7.

The aspect of the Koran as the fifth miracle is the news about the magical things. This unseen thing is of course beyond the limits of human reason and only God really knows it. Examples such as destiny, and eternal life after world life.

The reason for the Qur'an as the biggest miracle

Among all the scriptures that were passed down such as the Gospels, Zabur and the Torah, why is the Koran referred to as a miracle? There is a reason why this book is the biggest miracle, especially for the Prophet Muhammad.

1. Material and spiritual miracle

Considered the biggest miracle is because it has material, spiritual, 'aqliyah and spiritual nature. The miracle given to the previous prophet is generally physical. For example, not burning fire, raising the dead, talking to animals, splitting the ocean, and so on.

But the Koran as a miracle drops with the contents of the value system. Rasulullah Muhammad SAW also taught his people with sincerity and perseverance. Like Allah said:

وَمَا أَسْتَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْأَجْرٍ إِنْ أَجْرِيَ Related

Meaning: And I did not ask for a reward for the invitation; My reward is only from God all of nature. (Surah Asy-Syu'ara '(26): 109)

2. The eternal book

The second reason is because the Qur'an is an eternal book that will never change. In contrast to other books that experience changes with the times.

Even after the death of the Prophet Muhammad SAW content content and writing of each verse nothing has changed. That is, the meaning in it will never experience the slightest change.

Its existence is also eternal, in contrast to the miracles of the other Prophets. Like the ability of the Prophet Jesus to raise people to die to live again.

3. guarded directly by Allah

The strong reason for the fabric of the Koran as a miracle lies in the promise of Allah SWT which guarantees the guard and maintenance. "Indeed, we have lowered the Qur'an and in fact we continue to maintain it." (Surah Al-Hijr [15]: 9)

Proof that the Koran as a miracle

The truth as a miracle and ahasilah revealed to the Prophet Muhammad can be proven from many things. Many true stories can be used as evidence of the specialty of the Koran .

One example of the Koran as a miracle is the Meccan Musyrinikan, before the migration says: "The nation of the Gospel Owner Rum has been defeated by the Persians (majusi), then we will definitely defeat you, because you are an expert in the book too."

In the Holy Kirab Allah SWT answered through Ar-Rum verses 2-3: "" Rum (Roman) Kingdom has been defeated in the nearest country then they will win again in a few years ". This then came true in a few years later.

Scientific facts also explain the evidence. Among them are the fact that stars and galaxies continue to move away from each other found by Edwin Hubble, US astronomers. The discovery was obtained through observing the sky with a telescope in 1929.

The universe experienced developments according to QS Adz-Dzaariyat. " And our sky is built with our power, in fact we really expand it " (QS Adz-Dzaariyat [51]: 47). This means that it has been explained hundreds of years before.

Captain Jacques Yves Costeau, an oceanographer and French diving expert found the proof of Ar-Rahman verses 19-20 when exploring underwater. Namely the existence of the freshwater river flowing between sea water without mixing because there is a limit between the two.

There is no doubt the privilege and virtues of the Scriptures that are maintained directly by the Creator. Every Muslim is obliged to believe in the fact that the Koran is the biggest miracle on earth.

Wallahu'alam
