In brief, Muhammad
(peace and blessings of God be upon him) was born in a noble tribe of Mecca in
Arabia in the year 570 CE (Christian Era). His ancestry goes back to Prophet Ishmael (peace be upon
him), son of Prophet Abraham
(peace be upon him). His father died before his birth and his mother
died when he was six years old. He did not attend any formal school. He was raised first by a nursemaid
in the desert, as it was the customary in those days, then by his grandfather and then by his uncle. As a
young man, he was known as a righteous person who used to meditate in a cave. At age 40, he was
bestowed with prophet-hood by God through an angel, Gabriel, who appeared to Him in the cave of
Hiraa’, in Mecca. Subsequently, revelations were received by Prophet Muhammad
(peace and
blessings of God be upon him) for a period of 23 years. This book of revelations is called the Qur’aan.
The Qur’aan has been preserved, unchanged, in its original form and language, and confirms the truth in
the Torah, the psalms and the Gospel, prior to their corruption as in their present forms today. The
Qur’aan is the only scripture in existence today in its original text. All the earlier divine scriptures were
entrusted by God to His messengers to guard them, and after the physical death of the Messengers, their
followers were entrusted to guard them. However, the followers failed in their duties; therefore each
subsequent divine scripture corrected the previous one. God has confirmed in the Holy Qur’aan that not
only is it His last and final revelation to mankind, and but also that He Himself will guard and preserve it
until the Day of Judgment
Following note from Learning Quran online Blog
Learn holy Quran online which it self states in it that only those who are learn quran and pure should touch the holy text: This is indeed a Quran in Arabic in a book well-guarded, which none shall touch but those who are clean (56:77-79). One should make formal ablutions before handling or Quran reading and this the quran tutor should tell in his quran teaching when quran for kids lessons are going on. After intercourse or menstrual bleeding one should not touch the holy Quran or do quran recitation and also not do quran memorization until after bathing non-Muslim should not handle the sacred text, but may listen to Quran online or read quran translation or exegesis. With all these things in mind when one is not reading or reciting holy Quran it should be closed and stored in nice and clean place, it should never be placed on floor or in a bathroom and Muslim should focus on reading quran the tajweed quran and its rules with a proper institute.
