〔電子〕神聖なコーラン

The Quran is the sacred text of Islam. For Muslims, it is the word of the one God. The Quran was revealed to the last prophet Muḥammad (محمد) from the year 610 until his death in 632 by the angel Gabriel (جبريل). According to the Quran, Allah is the author of all the sacred books of the three monotheistic religions that are Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. He thus revealed the Gospel to the penultimate prophet Jesus and the Torah to the prophet Moses. Thus we read in verse 3 of Surah 3: "It is He Who has sent down the Book (the Quran) to you (Muhammad) with truth, confirming what came before it. And he sent down the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)." However, Islam considers that with the exception of the Quran, all holy books have been falsified by man. The Verse 75 of Surah 2 goes in this direction: " Well, do you hope [Muslims] that such people [the Jews] will share the faith with you? while a group of them; after hearing and understanding the word of Allah, falsified it knowingly. " This present work is a Japanese translation of the meaning of the verses of the Quran.
