THE CODE OF LIFE.

The Qur’an is the holy book of Islam. It is considered by Muslims to be the literal words of God as revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) through the archangel Gabriel over a period of approximately 23 years, beginning in 610 CE and concluding in 632 CE.

The Quran is written in Arabic and is divided into chapters called “Surahs” which are further divided into verses called “Ayahs”. There are a total of 114 Surahs and 6236 Ayahs in the Quran.

The Quran holds a unique and revered position in the hearts and minds of millions around the world. Beyond its spiritual significance, the Quran offers timeless guidance that extends beyond religious rituals into the intricate facets of human existence. In this blog post, we delve into the profound wisdom encapsulated within the pages of the Quran and explore how its teachings serve as a comprehensive guide for leading a meaningful and purposeful life.

The Quran is the code of life that covers various aspects like providing instructions, matters of faith, morality, law, and personal conduct.
