A person may believe in the existence of
God because of a miracle, or they might
know that God exists because of a miracle
that they experienced, a miracle that they experienced,
and the Qur'an is a living miracle.
There is no, it is, as the Prophet
ﷺ said in a beautiful statement, he said
that every prophet that came before was given
a miracle through which people believed in him.
Moses split the sea, and he obviously came
to the children of, he came to Egypt
with nine signs.
He came with nine signs, the blood and
the locusts, and he said Jesus raised the
dead by Allah's permission.
Prophets came with miracles, and the Prophet Muhammad
ﷺ, he says, what I have been given
is revelation.
What I've been given is revelation.
So he said, I hope to have the
largest number of followers on the day of
judgment.
My question for you is, how does his
statement of revelation, I've been given revelation, tie
to his wish that he has the largest
number of followers on the day of judgment?
I must have mentioned this here before.
Subhan, do you remember that one?
Put you on the spot.
No, so I remember being like a kid
and thinking to myself, I wish that the
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was given like miracles that
are like big miracles, like Musa, like Solomon,
like these.
And the Prophet ﷺ was given revelation.
But then I came across this hadith later
on, and I was like, this is incredible.
Because he said, what I've been given is
revelation, and I hope to have the largest
number of followers on the day of judgment.
What's the relationship between the two statements?
I was given revelation, I hope to have
the largest number of followers on the day
of judgment.
Whoever gets this one right, you're going to
get this bouquet.
I can't offer this because it's not mine.
I'm sorry.
I can't offer it.
You're supposed to back me up.
You're going to be like, yes, and you
get free admission.
That's what you're supposed to do.
Yes.
Okay, so his revelation outlives his life.
So what does that mean?
It can reach more and more people.
Okay, so the revelation reaches more people.
So what does that mean?
Yes.
Everlasting miracle.
Yes.
Sir.
You don't want it?
No, no, it's okay.
It's okay.
You'll take it.
You did set him up.
You gave him the aliyup and he just
came and he dunked it.
It's an everlasting miracle.
Every other prophet's miracles was limited to the
time and place of that miracle.
If you missed Moses splitting the sea, then
it just became a story that you heard.
You didn't witness it is the point.
But the Quran is a miracle that every
generation witnesses.
You open up the moshaf, you read it,
you experience the miracle.
And so because it was revelation, it actually
encompasses every generation that has passed and that
will pass and experience the Quran.
