The Holy Qur'an is the "Word of the Almighty Allah" which encompasses every apparent and hidden aspect and is aware of every good intention and mischief. Therefore, it is incumbent upon every Muslim to use his realistic views, to remember this holy Ayah and consider the "Word of Allah" as enduring and everlasting. He must not be convinced with what others have perceived and said.

He must not keep himself dependent on free thinking, which is man's only special virtue and whose use is emphasized by the Holy Qur'an.

The Almighty Allah states the following Ayah in description of the Holy Qur'an: "...Guiding to the truth and to a right path (46:30)." Allah also states: "Surely this Qur'an guides to that which is most upright...
