Divine Authorship of Qur'aan


In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful


23. Wa-in kuntum fee raybin mimma nazzalna AAala AAabdina fa/too bisooratin min mithlihi waodAAoo shuhadaakum min dooni Allahi in kuntum sadiqeena


23.  And if you are in doubt concerning what We have sent down unto Our Devotee, then come up with a Chapter like one thereof16 and call your witnesses – other  than Allah – for  your aid, if you are truthful.


16.    This is an open divine challenge for those who entertain doubts in the divine authorship of the Qur'aan. The Book elsewhere gives a hint of what the challenge means. "Do they not then ponder over the Qur'aan? Had it been from someone other than Allah, they would surely have found therein many a contradiction." [Q: 4:82]
