In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

Unlike any other book, the Quran is taught by God (55:1-2); He teaches us what we need at the time we need it. This is why we read the Quran hundreds of times without getting bored. We can read a novel, for example, only once. But the Quran can be read an infinite number of times, and we derive new and valuable information from it every time. 

God Himself has sent us this divine message in the form of the Quran so we can understand, appreciate, contemplate and abide by His laws. Reading the Quran, and praying to God to increase our knowledge is for our own benefit (Quran 96:1-5, 20:114).

On the other hand, the insincere readers - those who read the Quran to find fault with it - are diverted from the Quran (7:146, 17:45, 18:57, 41:44). 


[Quran 55:1 - 2] The Most Gracious. Teacher of the Quran.

      Language is Irrelevant
[41:44] If we made it a non-Arabic Quran they would have said, "Why did it come down in that language?" Whether it is Arabic or non-Arabic, say, "For those who believe, it is a guide and healing. As for those who disbelieve, they will be deaf and blind to it, as if they are being addressed from faraway."
[41:45] We have given Moses the scripture and it was also disputed. If it were not for your Lord's predetermined decision, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, they harbor too many doubts.
