Considered in Islam to be the infallible word of God, The Qur'an
was revealed to the prophet Muhammad by the archangel Gabriel in a
series of divine revelations over many years after his first vision
in the cave. In 114 chapters, or surahs, it provides the rules of
conduct that remain fundamental to Muslims today - most importantly
the key Islamic values of prayer, fasting, pilgrimage and absolute
faith in God, with profound spiritual guidance on matters of
kinship, marriage and family, crime and punishment, rituals, food,
warfare and charity. Through its pages, a fascinating picture
emerges of life in seventh-century Arabia, and from it we can learn
much about how people felt about their relationship with God and
their belief in the afterlife, as well as attitudes to loyalty,
friendship, race, forgiveness and the natural world. It also tells
of events and people familiar to Christian and Jewish readers,
fellow 'People of the Book' whose stories are recorded in the
Gospels and Torah. Here we find Adam, Moses, Abraham, Jesus and
John the Baptist, among others, who are regarded, like Muhammad, to
be prophets of the Muslim faith.
