Who worte the quran?

Answer 1

Muslims believe that the Qur'an was revealed by Allah (God in Arabic) to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) through Gabriel. Muhammad (pbuh) then narrated to his companions what Gabriel had revealed to him. Muhammad's (pbuh) companions wrote down what they heard and this was compiled into what is now available as a book and is called the Qur'an. So Muslims believe is was started by Allah. Non-Muslim historians believe it was started by the Arab Muhammad (pbuh). The Qur'an itself claims that it is from God and challenges the human race to produce something similar to it. Allah says in the Qur'an: "And if you are in doubt concerning that which We (Allah) have sent down (the Qur'an) to Our slave (Muhammad), then produce a chapter like it and call your witnesses (supporters and helpers) besides Allah, if you are truthful." [Qur'an 2:23] Say: "If the whole of mankind and the jinns came together to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce anything like it, even if they helped one another." [Qur'an 17:88] Muslims claim that nobody has succesfully met this challenge since the Qur'an was first revealed approximately 1400 years ago and that this proves that the Qur'an is from God. To appreciate why producing a chapter like the Qur'an may be problematic requires an understanding of the Arabic language.

Answer 2

The Holy Quran was revealed to Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) by Allah (God) through the Angel Gabriel as the final message of Allah (God) to mankind.

The Holy Quran was written to create a permanent copy of Allah's (God's) final message to mankind after this there would be no more messages from Allah (God). Due the sheer importance of this message, when ever a part of it was revealed to Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peach be Upon Him) through the Angel Gabriel it was immediately written almost every time by at least 3 people to create a hard copy in the presence of Holy Prophet (Peace be Upon Him). It was also immediately memorised by those people. Thus eliminating the chances of it being corrupted by anything and ensuring that what originally was revealed by Angel Gabriel is what exactly is in Quran word for word.
