Miraculosity of the Qur'an
Allah' the Exalted has challenged the Arabs and non-Arabs to produce a qur'an
similarto the Divine one. The challenge was then reduced to ten surahs, and yet they failed
to do so. Finally , Allah challenged them to produce a single surah comparable to any of His.
AL-though they were masters of eloquence and rhetoric during that period, the Arabs were
still incapable of taking up the challenge. They realized that it could never be from anyone
other than Allah, the Lord of the worlds.
The difference between miracles of the previous Messengers, which proved their
veracity, and those of the Messenger of Allah , peace be on him, is that their previous
miracles were effective during the lifetime of everyone of them, whereas the miracle of the
Qur'an remains effective, everlasting and unchallenged until the Day of Judgment.
