So that comes the closest to the concept of revelation of the Quran to Muslims. For example, the Ten Commandments when God said to Moses Thou shall do this, or Thou shall not do this, it doesn’t come in a form where God says I inspired Moses or Moses says God revealed this to me. If we look into the Bible, we will find that there are instances or statements that appear to be also sort of verbatim word of God, or the closest thing to that. But let me focus on the three religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam that seem to share more of this concept. I believe that there are other religions as well who depend as authority on scriptures also that they believe have some form of revealed nature. In fact, In Islam, Judaism and Christianity there is this notion of God revealing His will to humankind.
Now as we compare that so that our respected audience from the Jewish or Christian background can at least relate to this understanding, this is not unusual. For a Muslim, this is the ultimate source of authority because it’s not only revelation or inspiration of God, it’s verbatim word or revelation of God. Badawi: Well, first of all, I wish to thank you and the organizers for your kind invitation, and to greet all viewers with the traditional Islamic greeting, the greeting of all of the prophets: Asslamau`alaikum (peace be with you all).Īs far as your question on what the Quran is and what it means to Muslims, I will explain that first briefly from the Quranic perspective, from a Muslim perspective, and try to connect that also with other fellow believers in God like Jews and Christians the Bible mainly.įor a Muslim, the Quran is the word of God literal word of God communicated to His last Prophet and Messenger, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), through Angel Gabriel.

Each guide incorporates extensive commentary, detailed observations on overriding themes, and probing questions to help you study the Word of God with guidance from John MacArthur.Q: Dr. The MacArthur Bible Studies provide intriguing examinations of the whole of Scripture. He encourages believers to trust that Jesus Christ will judge the lost and will rule in ultimate victory over all human and demonic opposition. John’s message of hope in Revelation assures Christians that God is in sovereign control of all past, present, and future events. Through the use of vivid imagery, John writes Revelation to reveal the end of human history, the return of Christ, and the establishment of a new heaven and a new earth. This book was a reminder to them that God saw their hardships, cared about them, and would reward them for their faithfulness. The apostle John wrote this letter to the churches in Asia Minor who were feeling the overwhelming effects of persecution from all sides. The book of Revelation unveils Jesus Christ in glory.
