Mohammad Elshinawy – Proof of Prophethood #27 – Why The Quran Cant Be Imitated

			The inimitable nature of the Quran continues to be the most compelling proof that Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wasallam must have been, in fact without doubt the final prophet of God.
		

			He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam once said that there was never a prophet, except that God granted him
certain signs which caused the people to believe in Him. And what I was uniquely given was this
revelation that was inspired to me. And as a result, I am hopeful of having the most followers among
all the prophets on the Day of Resurrection. It makes sense that a permanent miracle, like the
Quran, which can be experienced by everyone firsthand, can outperform a transient temporary miracle
that was experienced by a limited group of people at some point in history. What is unexpected,
though, is how any work of literature even the holder N could ever qualify as otherworldly in its
		

			origins. You see, the Quran presents itself as the literal word of God, and challenges the world
that nothing like it can ever be produced. This imitability is multi dimensional, and these next few
episodes will offer just an overview or a taste of some of these dimensions. The first dimension
we'll cover is the poor and in its capacity as a linguistic wonder. According to both the highest
authorities of the Arabic language in early Arabia, as well as its foremost experts today, there is
essentially a consensus on the literary uniqueness of the Quran. Even those who decline and refuse
to accept the Quran as divine, still accept that this is a book that is truly in a league of its
		

			own, the most eminent manifestation of the Arabic language bar none. You see, the Quran descended
among people that were at the very pinnacle of rhetorical expression. These same people then
experienced a Quran from Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that was so pure in its Arabic on one
hand, but unprecedented in its eloquence, and yet at the same time, mysteriously independent of the
poetry and the prose of the Arabic language that they knew so well and had mastered. Dr. Sam saya
explains very succinctly the miraculousness of the Quran lies in this very paradox, it being truly
Arabic, but at the same time, a new language somehow, this may appear to be illogical, he says, but
		

			a miracle by definition is that which surpasses logic, you see a miracle that rests on logic, he
says, ceases to be a miracle. The pagan Arabs just couldn't explain how they collectively failed at
producing a single chapter of the Quran. This was the challenge with merely similar features to the
Quran, according to their own bias judges, when they were the masters of the Arabic language, and
when Mohammed had brought over 6000 verses of this Quran, and then the killer blow in this standoff,
which left absolutely no room for further doubt, was the fact that this man Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi, wa sallam was illiterate, unlettered to begin with, it was an utter enigma for them. And
		

			this is what caused them to settle in the end on the accusation of Mohammed being a magician, not
realizing in the process, that this very accusation entails them conceding to the fact that there is
something supernatural about this book, I can totally understand how it could be really difficult
for anyone to grasp in our day and age how any work of literature could ever be miraculous. And
that's why it's useful to consider the reaction of the neurons first audience instead of just
outperforming the unlettered men in what was their strongest suits, thereby ending his call and his
religion in its infancy by meeting the challenge. Instead, they did something very different. They
		

			spent fortunes trying to smear his name and prevent a single verse from reaching the ears or the
hearts of anyone who was visiting their hometown Mecca.
		

			They disavowed their codes of chivalry and tribal honor, which were massive undertakings for early
Arabs. They starved his followers murdered and tortured his supporters, many of which were their own
family members, and they ultimately waged war after war against their fellow Klansmen, as the great
Imam Albert Kalani says in his book or Jazel Quran the inevitability of the Quran. This is of the
greatest testimonies to the fact that they were truly failed by their words, and so they felt
compelled to reach for their swords. It was not just because their greatest poets like lebih diviner
Obeah, was now retiring from poetry and converting to Islam. But the very fact that they would echo
		

			to each other privately behind closed doors, that rivaling this Quran was absolutely impossible,
went into elite, minimal Veera, a staunch enemy of Islam until his very death, was asked to critique
the Quran. He responded, and what can I possibly say? There is not a single man amongst you who is
better versed in poetry or prose, or even the poetry of the jinn, the demon spirits than I am, and
by God what this man Muhammad says, does not bear resemblance to any of that. He continued to say by
God, his statements have a distinct sweetness to them, and such a charm hovers over them. Its
highest parts meaning the surface apparent initial meanings of the Quran are so fruitful, he says,
		

			and its depths the more you dive into the score and gush forth without end. Unrelenting profundity,
it dominates and can never be dominated, he says, and it is certainly bound to crush everything
beneath it.
