Letter: The Holy Koran (2)

T

hese comments come from The Jakarta Post’s website to the article entitled “World’s most powerful book” written by Al Makin, published on Sept. 28, 2010.
We Muslims believe that the Koran is one of our guides in life; it is magnificent to read it in the original text, which uses Arabic, and when we read its meaning in our language, we realize what an honor it is to be a Muslim.

I agree that the Koran is Holy Scripture and a powerful book, revealed 15 centuries ago to humanity through Muhammad by Almighty God, but it is no longer the most powerful book in this era, as that distinction belongs to the volumes of the Holy Scriptures, among them the Kitab-I-Aqdas (Book of Laws) and Kitab-I-Iqan (Book of Certitude), revealed to humanity one-and-an-half centuries ago through Baha’u’llah, the Glory of God, to give further guidance to humanity for advancing civilization.

The Koran is not written by anyone, it is the revelations revealed to Prophet Muhammad. If you find some similarities between the Koran and the original Injil and/or Taurat, it is because they are from the same source, Allah subhanahu wa taala. The fundamental message is basically the same, that is, the tauhid teachings, which are abused and or violated by others. There is no issue of plagiarism at all.
