The Qur'an

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

This is my first article. And because I am a moeslem, so that I choose this topic first.

In this topic, I would like to talk about Qur'an itself. This article was made after reading some books and also reading some articles. Okay, let's talk about it. The Quran is a book of wisdom. It is a book of guidance. It is not a book of history. The Qur'an refers to historical events from which one can receive guidance and gather wisdom. 

It is impossible to understand Islamic History without an understanding of the Quran. The great intellectual upheavals within the fold of Islam have taken place within the framework of conformance with or violation of Quranic teachings. For instance, the Mutazilah revolution of the eighth century, and the counter-Mutazilah revolution that overwhelmed it, were both formulated in terms of Quranic teachings. Timur, who was undoubtedly one the greatest conquerors the world has seen, always found it expedient to obtain a legal opinion from his jurists justifying his invasion and plunder of neighboring Muslim lands, claiming that the neighboring monarchs had violated the injunctions of the Quran. The sufis and the salafis, the modernists and the traditionalists, the reformists and the conservatives have all looked to the Quran for a justification of their positions.

Wallohu'alam bishshowwab.
