faith they all believe in ALLAH, His angels, His books, and in all His apostles.

They say:" We make no distinction between any of theprophets." They also say:" We hear the prophets andwe obey." Our LORD! we BEG Your forgiveness thatto you ends all the road."

THE HOLY QURN S 2: 582

Unfortunately through long elapse of time, many ofthe scriptures have been tampered with, and altered to some extent, by the interference of some ignorant and unauthorized people, resulting in the replacement of some wrong thoughts and immoral ideas. Among these an exception is the Glorious Qurn, which has remained unaltered and exactly is the same as it was; and It has always been shining like the bright sun, throughout the ages and the nations, alighting the hearts.

52QURN ,IS THE GREATEST OF THE MIRACLES OF OURPROPHET

WE BELIEVE that QURN is the greatest andthe most important one, among the many miracles of Islam's prophet: Not only for its eloquency, fluency, vividness and expressiveness, but rather for other important aspects and wide dimentions of the book, about which broad descriptions have been given by the experts and commentaors in their books.

WE BELIEVE that no one can ever bring a booklike the Holy QURN, even not a chapter comparableto it! This is because, the Holy QURN frequentlyasks the doubtful to do it if they can, and all who haveendeavoured have failed!

" Say:" If the whole of mankind and JINNS gathertogether to make out a book like this QURN, they cannot do it even if they back up each other with help and support."

THE HOLY QURN S 71: 88

" If you are in doubt of what we have revealed to ourservant( Mohammad ), then produce only one chapter


صفحه 54

comparable to this book; and call your witnesses orhelpers to help you, if there are any besides Allah to assist you; if what you say be ture. But if you fail to do so, and certainly you will fail, then fear the FIRE whose fuel is man and STONES prepared for the unbelievers

THE HOLY QURN S 2: 32 42

WE BELIEVE that age will not make the HolyQURN old and out of date; but rather its miraculous points and views shall appear more and more clearly, and its greatness shall become more evident to theworld.

We have a tradition narrated by Emam JaafarSadiq that:" God has not made QURAN to answer acertain age or distinct group of people. It shall alwaysremain fresh, New, and lively."

62QURN IS NOT ALTERED AT ALL

WE BELIEVE that this book,( QURN )whichis now at the hands of the Moslims, is the exact and


صفحه 55

unaltered copy of that which was revealed to ourprophet MOhammad nothing less and nothing more.

A group of trustworthy scribes chosen by theprophet himself took note of the revelations from thevery beginning up to the end, and Moslims had it aduty of must, to read and recite the verses by day andnight. A large group of Moslims committed the bookto memory and a group of them had it on the scrolls.

Those who had the book in their memory and thosewho could recite it for the others, had always had avery respectful position among the believer. Suchcustoms and else, prevented the least amount ofchanges or any alteration to take place in the book.

Besides that, God Himself has promised andguaranteed to look after His book and keep it safe andsecure until the end.:--

" We have without doubt, sent down the QURAN, andWe will assuredly guard it."

THE HOLY QURN S 51 9

All the learned, and researcher fo Islam, whetherSHIITE or SONNI, agree that the least alteration has


صفحه 56

not ever occured int this Holy Book. Some literate persons, discuss some rare andobscure tradition( HADIS )that may mean that somechanges have taken place, but the highest majority ofthose who have the knowledge of Islam, reject that, taking it false and the mistake of some una warecomm entators.

Such improvidents who lack forethought, by suchfalse ideas strike upon the validity of the mostimportant DIVINE BOOK, in contrast to the belief ofall the learned Moslims of different sects, whichmaintain that QURN is unaltered for the least ofwords. These unwise friends, water the mills of theenemy through their ignorance, and bring into questionthe book which is sent by Allah, and has beenpromised to be guarded by Allah.

If we carefully study the ways that the book wasrevealed to the prophet and collected by the chosenscribes, and how it was guarded, written, memorizedand recited by so many firm and true believers, nodoubt remains as to any alteration or the change ofeven an epsilon in the whole work.

On the other hand, of the imaginary or assumedQuran with some alteration, not ever a copy exists anywhere, or in any hand, so as to differ with the famous HOLY QURN which all the Moslims hold as their SACRED DIVINE BOOK.

To day the Holy Quran is found in every house andin every library. Even those Qurans written severalhundred years ago are kept in our MUSEUMS andthose in the non Islamic countries, and no one can findthe least differnces in all the existing Qurans throughout the wide world.

To day the roads to investigations are open to all, and anyone who doubts, may look for it himself andmake sure that QURN has not been altered for theleast.

" So announce glad tidings to My Servants to thosewho listen to My PRECEPTS, and follow what is the best in them. Those are the ones that Allah has guided and those are endued with understanding."

THE HOLY QURN S 93: 71 81

To day, in our religious schools, the knowledge of


صفحه 58

QURN, is extensively taught, and one of the mostimportant of our lessons in this field is the UNCHANGEABILITY OF QURN.

72QURN AND THE SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL NEEDS OFHUMAN

WE BELIEVE that whatever is needed inSPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL dimentions of man, is fundamentally found in the holy QURN. All the governmental and political tenets, all the social principles, the bases of symbiosis, the fundamentals of war and peace, the elements of judgements and economics, and whatever is needed, can be traced in the BOOK and taken out for use, so as to alight the space of human life:

" And We have sent down to you the BOOK, explainingall things, It is a GUIDE, a Mercy, and Glad tidings toMuslims."

THE HOLY QURN S 61: 98

This is why WE BELIEVE that Islam is notAPART of politics and diplomacy. This belief makes


صفحه 59

the Muslims to rule over themselves, so as to revivethe precious Islamic values in their societies, leading towards justice and equity. A Moslim Must be just and fair to his enemy as he does justice to friends:

" O, Believers! Stand up firmly to hold JUSTICE, and beas a witness to ALLAH, even against yourselves or your parents or your kins, and whether it be against rich or poor for God is preferable to all that.

follow not your lusts, lest you swerve. If you fail to dojustice, verily Allah is aware of all that you do."

THE HOLY QURN S 4: 531

" O, BELIEVERS! Stand up firmly for the sake of Allah, and bear true witness, and let not the hatered for other men, turn you away from doing justice. deal justly. Justice is nearer to PIETY. Have fear of Allah.

He is aware of all that you do.

THE HOLY

QURN S 5: 8

82RECITATION ,CONTEMPLATION ,AND ACTION

WE BELIEVE that the recitation of QURN isthe best of worship, because it inspires the reciter to
