    I'd like to add to Wakas's list if I may

    Quran very aware of itself, meaning it talks about itself and tells the reader how to read it.
    hadith not aware of itself, meaning not defined in its boundaries, doesnt know its collector or collections.

      OPF

      Regardless, the message sounds very nice although it does not appear divine in my eyes

      Yes brother that is my point! people who study Quran for the first time, who have not what so ever information about it, think the same way as you did, some are even harsher.

      Mazhar I am sorry, there was a spelling mistake

      the link is suralikeit.com and not surahlikeit.com

        Wakas

        The Quran = God's Word
        Ahadith = man's word

        The Quran = 100% fact/truth/perfect
        Ahadith = mix of truth and falsehood (hence weak and strong hadith)

        How did you arrive at this conclusion that Quran=God's word, and The Quran=100%

          exactly what i want to know! seems that its been already decided and agreed upon by all , that Quran is God's word! and the proof is the reading itself,wah?
          what if i pick up a random chapter(surah) and add one line of classical arab poetry , some where in between , would some one be able to identify just by reading it that which words are added i.e not from God , provided he or she hasnt memorized all ?

            It is not merely a specific component about the book, rather it is where it stands in reality. Now it's not difficult to write a book with no contradictions but somehow I sincerely doubt anyone on Earth could write a book about humanity's place in the universe and conveniently answer all the major questions in brief, elegant one liners and also put in mechanisms to prevent the original message from getting distorted. Any such book would end up being identical in message to the quran IMO.

              peace allli,

              How does one verify a truth? Ponder.

              The Quran discusses a lot of self-verification mechanisms.

              All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

                all you have to do is to find one contradiction in the quran and... BOOM... you are free! Quran is no longer binding on you!

                to help you find contradictions of quran http//www.answering-islam.org/ ...to find more just google!

                And once you find the contradictions but still you want to believe just try Lane Lexicon.... and more lexicons.... until you are satisfied... peace

                  There are people on Earth who believe that if anything is removed or added in the quran the internal code (code-19) of the book will be broken. So far they have found two verses of quran that were added later 9128-129. To find out about these people just google. thanks

                    doesn't the book claim that "like of it" cannot be produced?

                        Not Kaafir, but a Munafiq. To call him Kaafir means to elevate him.
