            there can be no faith or salvation. Abandoning all the prin-
            ciples and rules of the ignorant society, a person must take
            only the Qur’an as his guide and become a believer who
            pays meticulous attention in every command of Allah He
            states in the Qur’an.
               To do this, a person must first have a good knowledge
            of the Qur’an and believe that it is Allah’s word. Thus,
            those who want to spread Islam must show clear proofs
            that the Qur’an is Allah’s revelation and that not even one
            syllable of it has been altered since it was first revealed. As

               One of the most important proofs of the Qur’an’s pro-
            tection is that it contains no inconsistencies or contradic-
            tions. For twenty-three years, none of the verses that were
            sent down on different occasions and under different con-
            ditions were inconsistent with another, either in the facts it
            related or the commands it contained:
               Will they not ponder the Qur’an? If it had been from
               other than Allah, they would have found many incon-
               sistencies in it. (Surat an-Nisa’: 82)
               “Praise belongs to Allah, Who has sent down the Book
               to His servant and has put no crookedness in it.”
               (Surat al-Kahf: 1)
               The response to those who believe something different
            is clear:
