The Holy Prophet said: "What should I recite?

The Holy Prophet said: "What should I recite?" Jibrail said: "Read in the name of thy Lord, who created; created man out of a mere clot of concealed blood; read; and thy Lord is most bountiful; He who taught (The use of) pen; taught man that which he did not know." The Holy Qur'an as word of God, the Almighty, as revealed to his Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.). This book gives guidance for our daily life. It appeals to our power of reasoning, and exhorts us to follow the commands of Allah.

It is a living miracle of Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.), the last of the Prophets who came from God. It is not surprising at all that this Holy Book has remained intact for the last 1400 years. And it shall remain so till the day of judgement, for Allah has taken it on himself to protect it. "Surely We have revealed the Reminder and We will most surely be its guardian." (15:9) The Qur'an is divided into 114 chapters (Suras).

There are in it 6226 verses (Ayats) containing 99,464 words made up of 330,110 letters. Imam Jaafer Sadiq (A.S.) has said that one should at least recite 50 Ayats everyday. Let us, therefore, value and respect this Great Book by reading it with understanding and follow its teachings. MUST GOD BE JUST?

Kisra, A Persian King, was once asked, "How did you learn Justice?" He replied, "Because I know for sure that every man will be judged according to his deeds." He was then asked: "How do you know that?" He replied: "One day when I was on my way to the forest, I saw a Gazelle. I sent my dog after it and it caught the Gazelle by the leg. But the dog did not catch the Gazelle in the usual way, for it bit and broke the Gazelle's leg.

Not long after, the dog was in front of a horse, that kicked it in the leg and the dogs leg was broken. Soon after, the horse's leg slipped into a hole and it broke. Therefore, I realised that every person's award depends upon his deeds. When he does a good deed, he will be rewarded for it, and if he does an evil deed, he will be punished. Hence, I always do good deeds." God does no wrong or evil.

Anybody who commits wrong or injustice does so either because he does not know that it is wrong (but God knows everything) or because he needs something which cannot be obtained without wrong doing (But God has no need) or because he has been compelled by somebody else to commit that wrong (But God is all-powerful and nobody can compel Him to do anything). So it makes sense that it is impossible for God to do any injustice or wrong.
