In fact Allah states in Holy Quran that if it was not the word of Allah, people would be fighting over the meanings of verses. However the verses in Quran are such that they provide answer to all the queries and still do not confuse the believers. There is no contradiction in the meaning and there is an answer to every question in Quran for those who want to grasp the true meaning.

After his death in 632 CE, Muhammad’s words from Allah were written down in a book called Qur’an. “Only the Arabic Qur’an expresses without the fault the word of God” (World religion).
