Mufti Menk – The Unique Book – Without A Doubt

			So right at the beginning of the Quran,
		

			Allah talks about the fact that you shouldn't
		

			doubt the Quran. Where there is doubt, there
		

			cannot be healing. Where there is doubt, there
		

			will never be hope. So Allah concentrates on
		

			the issue of
		

			no doubt.
		

			This book, there is no doubt in it.
		

			It is authentic. It is absolutely
		

			correct.
		

			Allah says
		

			In a translation,
		

			we could say there is no doubt in
		

			it. There is guidance for those who develop
		

			taqwa.
		

			And
		

			just to recap
		

			with what you may know, taqwa is to
		

			develop the consciousness of Allah, developing the correct
		

			relationship with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. That is
		

			taqwa.
		

			So when we say there is no doubt
		

			in this book and there is guidance in
		

			it for those who have taqwa, it means
		

			if we try to develop the correct relationship
		

			with Allah, that is the only time we
		

			will be able to benefit from revelation
		

			and from our relationship with Allah.
		

			How will I know what Allah wants from
		

			me if I haven't read the Quran? And
		

			how will the Quran impact upon me if
		

			I am not interested in developing the correct
		

			relationship with Allah
		

			or becoming conscious of Allah? So these are
		

			all interconnected
		

			matters.
		

			Remember that your taqwa is closely connected to
		

			how you are with the Quran.
		

			Your guidance is closely connected with your relationship
		

			with Allah and your search for guidance. So
		

			continue searching and continue
		

			pushing yourself to do the right thing.
