A Contemporary, Rational Examination of the Sciences of the Holy Qur’ān

About the Book

The Qur’ān is that Single Heavenly Message that underwent so many passages through the evolution of mankind under the Guidance of Allāh, the Lord of the universe to appear as the chosen, simplified and perfected code of conduct in the hands of Muhammad Rasūlullāh. Examining its Sciences convinces one of its Miraculous Nature, its conformity and confirmation of the Torah. It explains avidly that man has the faculty of discrimination, as a result of his ability to develop, grow, progress and to direct independently his own way of living. The base of this is in the ‘Knowledge’ the Lord of the universe taught him. Harmony and Peace are comprehensive terms enveloping all that man needs for his survival in this world. The objective of examining the Sciences of the holy Qur’ān is to find a safe passage and a way of living, in perfect harmony and peace, between mankind, his environment and his Creator. Secondly it enables one to understand and realize what will happen to one if he dies. Those reading the Scriptures have come across the Promise of Allāh for reward and punishment in this earthly world and in the Hereafter. The holy Qur’ān, the last of such Scriptures teaches the same. Allāh summed up this in the holy Qur’ān 53:38-41, “That no burdened person (with sins) shall bear the burden (sins) of another. And that man can have nothing but what he does (good or bad). And that his deeds will be seen. The he will be recompensed with a full and the best recompense.”

About the Author

Sani Salih Mustapha, a moderate Islāmic preacher, was born in Kano, Nigeria, in 1946. He received his initial Islāmic education under his grandfather, Ahmad, but never graduated. Sani Salih Mustapha is a retired physician. As a scientist he applies scientific methods in understanding the reality surrounding the God of Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus the son of Mary. He believes firmly that the last messenger sent by God came with the same message of strict obedience: you obey, or else you suffer and perish under the hands of your enemies. Unfortunately, the followers of the last messenger did not clearly explain his mission; they distorted it, mangled it, and hid it. It is inconceivable that a physician could fail to tell the truth or compromise it. Mustapha believes that peace is a bipartisan issue, and all must contribute. His hobby is to reflect on the reality that it is impossible to deny the existence of the Creator. Education is the solution to our problems.
