The belief that the Quran is the literal word of Allah (God) is central to Islam, and it’s supported by a range of spiritual, historical, linguistic, and scientific arguments. Here’s a breakdown of why many Muslims—and even some non-Muslim scholars—consider the Quran to be divine truth:

📜 1. The Quran Claims Divine Origin

• The Quran explicitly states that it is the speech of Allah, revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the angel Jibreel (Gabriel).
• Verses like “Falsehood cannot approach it from before it or from behind it” (Quran 41:42) emphasize its divine protection and authenticity.

🧠 2. Unmatched Linguistic Mastery

• The Quran’s style, rhythm, and eloquence are considered inimitable, even by the greatest Arab poets and linguists of the time.
• Despite challenges, no one has been able to produce a chapter like it, fulfilling the Quran’s own challenge (Quran 2:23).

🔮 3. Fulfilled Prophecies

• The Quran made predictions that later came true, such as the Byzantine Empire’s victory over the Persians after a major defeat (Quran 30:2–4).
• These fulfilled prophecies are seen as signs of divine knowledge.

🌊 4. Scientific Insights

• The Quran describes natural phenomena that were only discovered centuries later, such as:
• The barrier between salt and fresh water (Quran 55:19–20)
• Embryonic development stages
• The expanding universe
• These insights are viewed as miraculous given the 7th-century context.

🛡️ 5. Preservation Over Time

• Unlike other scriptures, the Quran has remained unchanged since its revelation.
• It was memorized by thousands during the Prophet’s lifetime and continues to be memorized by millions today.

🧭 6. Transformative Power

• The Quran transformed a tribal society into a global civilization rooted in justice, knowledge, and spirituality.
• Its teachings continue to guide billions in every aspect of life.
