    About this ebook

    It is acknowledged, by non-Muslims too, that the Qur'an is a worthy book. But why couldn't it have been compiled by the Prophet (S) himself?

    It would not be out of the ordinary if a man as great as he should write a book as valuable as the Qur'an. This, certainly, would be a more logical explanation than the claim that the Qur'an was revealed by 'Allah'.

    How does the Muslim respond to the accusation that the Qur'an is Muhammad's (S) work. How can it be proven - objectively and rationally, without appeal to religious texts - that it is Allah, not Muhammad (S), who is its source?

    This book provides answers to all these questions and more.
