The Quran is the Only Holy Book that Has Never Been Changed by Man
Allah promises us in the Quran that:
Indeed, it is We who sent down the Quran and indeed, We will be its guardian. (Quran 15:9)
The Quran was written down during the life and times of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Not only did that ensure its survival after the prophet’s life, the Quran was also memorized by hundreds and thousands of people and it was spread word for word throughout Arabia.
Those who had heard verses from the Prophet would go and spread them to tribes far away, who would also memorize them. In this way, the Quran achieved a literary status known among the Arabs as mutawatir. Mutawatir means that it was so vastly disseminated to so many different groups of people, who all had the same exact wording.
Every word, letter and even every pause of the Quran has been passed down and remains the same till this day, over 1400 years after its revelation.
