THANK YOU.




Understanding the Qur’an

The Qur’an contains revelation from Allah and the true nature of
revelation is to guide mankind from darkness to light:
‘A book which we have revealed unto thee in order that thou mightest
lead mankind out of the depths of darkness into light - by the leave
of they Lord - to the way of (Him) the exalted in power, worthy of all
praise’ The Holy Qur’an, Chapter 14, Verse 1


The revelation came in the language of the messenger and his people in
order that it might be understood:
‘We have made it a Qur’an in Arabic that ye may be able to understand
( and learn wisdom).’ The Holy Qur’an, Chapter 43, Verse 3

In the process of understanding a message two steps are essential:
- To receive the message correctly and completely, in this case to
receive its words correctly and completely.
- To ‘decode’ it, to grasp the meanings of the message received.
Only the combination of the two elements, i.e. reception and decoding,
lead to proper understanding of the message.
It is not correct to assume that understanding the Qur’an in order to
take guidance from it depends upon direct knowledge of the Arabic
language, since there are numerous Arabic-speaking people who do not
understand the message of the Qur’an. Rather the Qur’an tells us that
right guidance comes only from Allah: ‘This is the guidance of God: He
giveth that guidance to whom He pleaseth of His worshippers…’, The
Holy Qur’an, Chapter 6, Verse 88

However, to understand the language of the Qur’an is a prerequisite to
fully grasp its meanings. Hence many Muslims have learned this
language. Others, who have not done so, make use of translations,
which for them is an indirect means of knowing the language, as in the
translations of the meanings of the Qur’an have been rendered into
their mother tongues so that they may familiarise themselves with the
message from Allah.

This message can be understood by all human beings who are willing to
listen, for the Qur’an is not difficult but easy:
‘We have indeed made the Qur’an easy to remember: but is there any
that remembers it?’, The Holy Qur’an, Chapter 54, Verse 17

Hello Imanway !
I thought that by this times you would have your own forum !
Unfortunately I see that it is not ... what a pitty ... I would have
been interested as I told you before.
Just tell me if you change your mind, because I find your contents
really interesting and done with a very elevated spirit.
Also ( with apologies ) I still believe that pressing on an
electronics forum is not the way ... because it causes the
contrary effect that you are looking for.
I hope that the almighty will enlight you and you will see this when
it is the right time. If not, all of your words fall in contradiction.

Kind regards
Roberto
