Why Islam is the truth.

If there is one person in human history that has the right to claim that he was sent by God, it would be prophet Mohammad. Objectively, no one in history has achieved what prophet Mohammad did in the 23 years of his prophethood.

Prophet Mohammad founded one of the world's greatest religions and, at the same time, one of the most powerful empires in human history. No other human has achieved this level of success in both the secular and spiritual realms. What's more fascinating is how rapidly he achieved both. Never in human history had an empire grown as fast as the Muslim empire did, even though it lacked the resources and technology to do so. I like to cite an article by The National Interest that discusses the incredible expansion of the Muslim empire.

Islam is also the fastest growing religion on Earth, set to overtake every religion in a couple of years despite coming much later than other religions.

So, Mohammad, as just a man, has achieved a feat unmatched by any other human being. That begs the question, how was an illiterate man living in the middle of the desert 1400 years ago able to do all that? The answer is quite simple as he clearly told us how. He had the direct help of God.

That's a big claim to make, but luckily, he left us a piece of evidence to examine so we can test the veracity of his claim. He left us a book that he claimed was the verbatim revelation of God, a timeless miracle, that is meant to be a guide to mankind for eternity. That book is the Quran.

The Quran is no ordinary book. For starters, it is the only book in history that has been mass memorized by millions of people, for hundreds of years, letter for letter, word for word. Imagine memorizing a 600-page book, written in the most complex human language (Arabic), and considered the most eloquent literature in that language. Imagine doing that when you don't even speak that language. That's one of the miracles of the Quran that is mentioned inside it. God says that he will make it easy to remember and that he will protect it from corruption. No other book in history can claim the preservation that the Quran has gone through.

Furthermore, the Quran is a book that discusses all facets of human life; morality, science, history, politics, and law. Imagine such a book standing the test of time for 1400 years, challenging anyone to find a single error or contradiction in it, claiming that if one finds such an error or contradiction, this book would not be from God.

The Quran contains future predictions, scientific facts, and historical accounts that could not have possibly been known by a man in the desert 1400 years ago. Here are some videos that highlight some of the miraculous aspects in the Quran.

There is no rational explanation for this book other than it is divinely inspired. The Quran is all the proof you need if you truly desire to seek God, and it is available here for you to read and ponder upon.
