Chapter One Misconceptions Regarding the Quran

Chapter One Misconceptions Regarding the Quran

It is the foundation of belief, the starting point of all forms of knowledge, the inspiration for the arts and the Book to which turn believing men and women, young and old. It is studied, memorized and analyzed by students of sacred knowledge, who have dedicated their lives to its service.
