Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Shiites Under Attack Do the Shiite Muslims Say That the Qur'an Is Incomplete? The late Egyptian Muslim scholar Muhammad Abu Zahra said in his book al-Imam al-Sadiq that Muhammad bin Ya'qub al-Kulayni (a hadith recorder, died in 329 AH), recorded in his book "Usul al-Kafi" that the Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq said that the Qur'an which was revealed to the contained seven thousand verses, while the verses we read in the Qur'an are only 6262.

The rest is treasured by the members of the House of the Prophet ... Sheikh Abu Zahra issued a harsh judgment against the hadith recorder al-Kulayni while Sheikh Kulayni is unable to defend himself because he met his Lord centuries ago. In spite of Sheikh Abu Zahra's harsh judgment against al-Kulayni, he did not try to accuse all the Shiites with what he accused al-Kulayni.

Al-Kulayni's report concerning the incompleteness of the Qur'an is unacceptable to the Imamate Shiites (who are the overwhelming majority of the Shiites). They say that the Qur'an is complete without addition, deletion, or change.

Professor Muhammad Abu Zahra in his book Imam al-Sadiq said that al-Safi, a prominent Shiite scholar, said in his commentary on the Holy Qur'an the following: "According to Sheikh Abu Ali al-Tabarsi, another prominent Shiite scholar, 'There are no words added to the Qur'an. Any claim of added words is unanimously denied by the Shiites. As to the deletion, some Shiites and some Sunnis said that there is change or deletion.

Our scholars deny that.' " Sayyid al-Murtada, another prominent Shi'ite scholar, said: "... our certainty of the completeness of the Qur'an is like our certainty of the existence of countries or major events which are self-evident. Motives and reasons for recording and guarding the Holy Qur'an are numerous, because the Qur'an is a miracle of the Prophet hood and the source of Islamic knowledge and religious rule.

Their concern with the Qur'an made the Muslim scholars highly efficient concerning its grammar, its reading, and its verses. " With this unequaled concern, there is no possibility the Qur'an was changed or deleted in some parts. The mercenary writers---who only try to divide Muslims as a service to the hypocrite Muslim governments---should be informed of the following: (1) Al-Kulayni is not an Imam of the Shiites.

He is only a hadith recorder who reported what was conveyed to him through one or more sources. He did not say that he heard from al-Imam al-Sadiq.
