Muslim Woman - why Quran given to us
Let us ask why was the Quran sent to humanity? Allah Almighty says
that the Quran was sent to Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him, to
lead humanity out of darkness and into light. A Book which we have
revealed unto you in order that you might lead mankind out of darkness
into light, chapter- 14 verse 1
Various examples can be given to explain this verse. Liberating people
out of slavery into freedom is an example of leading them from
darkness into light chapter- 14 verse 5. Messenger Moses peace be upon
him liberation of Israelites from slavery in Egypt to freedom, and
Messenger Muhammad's peace be upon him migration to establish an
independent Muslim community and state in Medina are historical
examples of leading mankind from darkness into light. Removing
ignorance, superstition and blind beliefs with knowledge, reason and
understanding is another example. Allah Almighty also says that the
Quran was sent to remove conflict and differences among human beings.
And We sent down the Book to you Muhammad for express purpose, that
you should clear to them those things in which they differ, chapter 16
verse 64. So, the Quran removes differences and conflicts which divide
human beings and eventually creates unity of mankind. The image of
today's muslims has nothing to do with Quranic crieteria of Islam and
muslim.
