The Quran is clear and comprehensible .

 



“A.L.R. These are the signs of the clear book.” 12:1
”We have made it (the Quran) easy to understand and in your own tongue (language) may you take heed” 44:58



Although God confirms that the Quran is clear and easy to understand, yet the same scholars who advocated the "abrogation lie" will tell us that the Quran is difficult to understand, and that nobody is qualified to interpret it except their likes! What nonsense! They even go to the extent of prohibiting its interpretation by anyone who does not possess a degree from one of their acknowledged Islamic academies! Howeve, their interpretations are often far more ambiguous than what they claim the Quran to be!
They argue that since the Quran is ambiguous there is a justified need for the ’hadith’. For them, the ‘hadith’ offers the guidance required to understand the Quran!
Apart from numerous other contradictions that are found in the claims of these scholars, the claim that the hadith of the prophet offers guidance is in clear violation of the following Quranic verse:

"Say, "I possess no power to harm you, nor to guide you." 72:21

If the prophet is commanded by God to say that he cannot guide us, how can his hadith offer us guidance?

Generally speaking the Quran contains five types of verses:



1- Law giving:
These are the verses that include all the rituals, the prohibitions, and the laws of God.
2- Warning: These are the verses that warn against disobeying God. These verses speak of a sin, a warning against it and an assigned punishment.
3- Narrative: Examples of these verses are the ones which relate the stories of previous prophets....etc.
4.-Informative: Examples of these are the verses which contain scientific information, (e.g. verses which speak of the universe, geology or embryology ...etc).
5- Reflective: Like the verses which contain various parables.


On Judgement Day, believers will be accountable to the first two types of verses (Law giving and Warning verses) regardless of which divine scripture they follow. On the other hand, no one will be accountable to the last three types of verses.

The Quran was not only revealed for the intellectuals or the scholars, but also for the unlearned and simple folk who may not be as clever. For that specific reason, and because God is the Most Fair, God deliberately made sure that these law giving verses in particular, and by which we will be held accountable to, are very clear and straightforward.
These verses are clear and straightforward, not through the interpretations of the scholars (as they claim), but through the simple words of God (12:1 and 44:58).
God distinguishes between the clear straightforward verses (the law giving in particular) and between other verses which could be interpreted in more than one way:


“He sent down to you this scripture, containing authoritative verses, which constitute the essence of the scripture, as well as multiple-meaning or allegorical verses. Those who harbor doubts in their hearts will pursue the multiple-meaning verses to create confusion, and to extricate a certain meaning. None knows the true meaning thereof except God and those well founded in knowledge. They say, "We believe in this-all of it comes from our Lord." Only those who possess intelligence will take heed” 3:7


If the law giving verses of the Quran were complex and required a degree of intelligence to understand them, and follow them, then there would be a favourable bias given to the intelligent. But because of God's justice and fairness, we find that the law giving verses are made very clear and straightforward. Thus no injustices would befall anyone. This is made quite clear in the Quran in numerous verses such as:


“God does not inflict an atom’s weight of injustice.”4:40


An example of the law giving verses that are quite straightforward is the verse that specifies the steps of ablution:


“O you who believe, when you observe the Contact Prayers (Salat), you shall wash your faces, wash your arms to the elbows, wipe your heads and your feet to the ankles”
5:6


This simple order from God is phrased in such simple and direct words that it is not possible to find different words which would make the meaning any clearer.

Read quran and it will guided us to the true teaching of The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) he summarized the religion of Islam with this statement: “The Religion is naseehah (sincerity)!” So then Tameem ibn Aws, may Allah be pleased with him, then said, “We asked, ‘To whom?’” He said: “To Allah, HIS BOOK holy quran, His Messenger, the leaders of the people, and their common folk.” [Muslim] so to study the religion people should go to the source of and source of Islam is the quran so learning quran and reading quran with the meaning the quran tafsir and then explore the words of wisdom. And for the Muslims the sincerity that is due to the Book of Allah includes doing the quran recitation, listening to quran along with learning the tajweed rules and reciting it beautifully, letting our kids learn quran learning holy quran tafseer and the reasons for its revelation, affirming that it is the Truth, the perfect Speech of Allah and not part of the creation, honoring it and defending it, abiding by the orders and prohibitions found in it and teaching quran to spread the word or truth and calling to it. So by learning quran education online and reflecting over the Quran online, one fulfills an obligation and is rewarded for that. Upon fulfilling this obligation, the Quran then becomes a proof for him on the Day of Judgment! And that is our second benefit we will take by embracing this Noble Book...
