The Quran proves Muhammad was a true messenger
“When you read the Quran, you will find all of the Quran has same level.”
The Qur'an's unique and consistent eloquence, despite Muhammad's illiteracy and its gradual revelation, together with fulfilled prophecies, demonstrates that Muhammad was a true messenger of Allah.
The khutbah in 5 steps
- Continues the previous khutbah's discussion of evidence for Muhammad's prophethood.
- Argues that Muhammad's illiteracy makes the Qur'an's literary miracle especially significant.
- Claims the Qur'an's consistent eloquence and harmony across 23 years indicate divine origin.
- Presents prophecies involving Abu Lahab, the Battle of Badr, storms, the Romans and Persians, and al-Walid ibn al-Mughira.
- Concludes with later prophecies, including conquests and Suraqah's promised Kisra clothing, before prayer.
In the khateeb's words
“The point he came with a miracle of the same kind that he had no knowledge before. He had no knowledge before.”
“Moreover, when you read the Quran, you will find all of the Quran has same level. Same level in eloquence, in rhetoric, influence, same level in everything.”
“But guess what? Abu Lahab lived after this surah 10 years. And he has never seen it.”
For the dinner table
Today's khutbah continued last week's discussion about evidence that Muhammad was a true messenger. The khateeb focused on the Qur'an: Muhammad was unlettered, yet brought a scripture whose eloquence and coherence remained consistent as it was revealed over 23 years. He also described predictions involving Abu Lahab, the Romans and Persians, and Suraqah's promised clothing from Kisra. The message was to reflect on these signs as evidence of prophethood and to keep learning from the Qur'an and Sunnah. Families can discuss which example they found most meaningful and what questions they would like to study further.
- Which example from the khutbah stood out to you most, and why?
- What would you like to learn more about in the Qur'an or Sunnah?
- How can patience help us hold onto faith over many years?
