Walid went to their group and said, “Do you think Muhammad is crazy? Have you seen the effects of insanity in him?” Those who were present said, “No.” “Do you think that he is a liar? Was he not famous to date among you for his truthfulness and his trustworthiness?

Did you not call him a truthful and trustworthy person?” Some of the leaders of the Quraysh said, “Then what should we call him, what should we relate him to?” Walid thought a bit and then said, “He is a magician.” Even though they tried to turn the common people away from the Qur’an, which they were attracted to, this commentary of ‘magic’ was itself living proof of the extraordinary attraction of the Holy Qur’an and they called this attraction, bewitchment while it had nothing to do with magic.

It was because of this that the Quraysh spread this opinion everywhere that Muhammad is a magician and these verses are his magic, keep away from him and try not to listen to what he is saying. But in spite of all of their efforts and endeavors, their plan had no effect. The thirsty were everywhere and plentiful. They had pure hearts and group by group, they joined the Qur’an. They drank of the pure water of the heavenly message and the enemy, defeated, retreated.

The Holy Qur’an, today, challenges all of the people of the world and invites them to struggle against it. It cries out, “If you doubt the truth of these verses and you think that it is born of human thought, bring its like.

O scholars, philosophers and literary persons, writers from whatever nation or people!” We also know that the enemies of Islam, in particular, Christian priests, who know Islam to be a revolutionary school, full of meaning, a strong competitor and a danger to it, every year spend millions of dollars to spread anti-Islamic propaganda. They are active in Islamic countries under the cover of culture, science and health.

What would happen if they made the way closer, if they were to invite Arab-Christian scholars, poets, writers and philosophers to write verses like the verses of the Holy Qur’an to silence the Muslims? It is clear that if such a thing were possible, at whatever the cost, they would do so. The very fact that they are unable to do so is a proof before the opponents and proof of the miracle of the Qur’an.

Think and Answer Why is the Holy Qur’an the highest and most superior of the miracles of the Holy Prophet? How does the Qur’an challenge people? Why have the enemies of the Qur’an referred to it as magic?
