             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.
