41 Why should the Quran be distributed
to all mankind?
he Quran is not a religious book in the limited sense
Tof the term. It is a Book that tells people about the
creation plan of God, and the scheme of things of the
One who has created the entire Universe. This is not a
matter of religion alone. For example, the Quran has a
verse:
Surely, with every hardship there is ease.
(Quran 94:6)
This means that if a problem befalls one, one should
not get hassled; rather one should do peaceful planning.
Nations like Germany, for example, could enjoy success
because they planned on the basis of what remained
with them and not on what they had lost. Similarly,
the Prophet Muhammad had lost Makkah, but gained
Madinah – so he planned on the basis of Madinah and
not on the basis of Makkah.
The Quran is not a book of jurisprudence or a book of
dos and don’ts about rituals. The Quran informs people
about the laws of nature. It is not a book of Muslims, it is
a Book of God. So, it becomes imperative that it be taken
to all mankind.
