The Quran is widely recognised as a miraculous book, for the unique
style and presentation of the arabic language. As muslims worldwide
know, the words and surahs contained in the Quran can only have come
from Allah. Unlike other religious texts, the Quran famously issues a
challenge to all mankind to try and produce even one Surah just like it.
To date, nobody has been able to meet the challenge, even though many
have tried.
To a native English speaker, this challenge sounds like it can easily be
met, especially if they have read an English translation of the Quran.
But the arabic language is so unique and powerful, that only after they
study and learn it will they realise the great difficulty (and
impossibility) of ever producing a surah which can rival that of those
contained in the Quran. Nouman Ali Khan deals deals brilliantly with
this subject in this video.
