WHY WAS THE QURAN REVEALED? (PART 1) Page 7
6:156 Now you can no longer say, “The scripture was sent down to two groups before us, and we were unaware of their teachings.”6:157 Nor can you say, “If only a scripture could come down to us, we would be better guided than they.” A Proven Scripture has now come to you from your LORD, and a beacon, and a mercy.

  2. WHY WAS THE QURAN REVEALED? (PART 1) Page 7
