Questioner: As-salamu alaykumHuzoor,Huzoor (ra): wa alikum sallam.Questioner: who wrote the Holy Qur’an?Huzoor (rh): Who wrote the Holy Qur’an? Allah revealed it to Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and there were many companions of the Holy Founder of Islam, who became scribes for writing the Qur’an, because hazrat (saw) himself did not know how to write. So there were many scribes, like Hazrat Ali was one of them, there was one Abdullah, by the name of Abdullah, you know some other names, a few names, who participated in the… Zaid bin Thabit, yes, so there were quite a few companions of the Holy Prophet, who at different times were employed, for the scribing of the Holy Qur’an. But the book was revealed in verbal form first to Prophet Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and then he dictated what he received from God to be scribed by the human scribes, okay?
