It is consider by Muslims as words of Allah that cannot be distort by modification, deletion and addition. Qur’an is the only book that revealed from heaven that remains without distortion, decrease or increase until now.

For Muslims respecting the Qur’an is an integral part of their religion and faith. None of them can accept any insult of disrespect to this book and only fully purified people can touch the Holy Qur’an. It contains all teachings, regulations, instructions and rules that govern the lives of Muslims and illuminate their way in this world. It also contains stories of previous Messengers and nations as well as many of the lessons from the plights inflicted to such nations.
