Page 61 - How Do The Unwise Interpret The Qur'an ?
P. 61
Examples of Misinterpretation of the Qur'an
verses are repeated. Constant reference is made in different
Qur'anic anecdotes, examples, and suggestions to the principles of
religion, such as the existence and oneness of God, resignation,
concession, the importance of praising God, the temporary nature
of this world, gratitude and spending one's life on the path of God.
There are even instances when a verse is repeated word for word
in another place in the Qur'an.
This has many plausible motives. In order to engrave essential
subjects in the minds and hearts of people, they are repeated at
every opportunity. Furthermore, every aspect of these vital
subjects becomes easier to comprehend if they are covered in
different examples and anecdotes.
One of the well-known repetitions in the Qur'an is the verse
"Then which of the favours of your Lord will you deny?" in
Surat ar-Rahman. This verse is mentioned among the 78 verses of
this Surah 31 times. This is a very wise repetition that provides the
vital atmosphere to put people into a grateful and meditative state
rather than remaining indifferent as they consider how the beauties
of Heaven listed by God are truly magnificent favors and blessings.
The respectful admiration and grandeur present in the heart of the
believer strengthens with each reiteration of the verse. In this way,
the desired feeling is delivered to the heart of the sincere and
conscientious believer in the best possible manner.

Every Qur'anic verse is an example of the endless Wisdom of
God, and so every subject it contains has been explained in the
most substantial and perfect style. In some parts a subject is
explained in a most thorough and detailed manner whereas, in
