The Qur’an An Abiding Wonder
Eternal Truth
~ 146 ~
has been repeated many times throughout the ages
in different forms. In present times God has
ordained this through human knowledge itself,
advances in knowledge and science having made it
possible to prove with finality the unassailability of
divine Truth. With the revelation of the Quran, the
events that were to unfold found expression in
these words:
We will show them Our Signs in all the regions
of the earth and in their own souls, until they
clearly see that this is the truth. Does it not
suffice that your Lord is watching over all
things? (Qur’an, 41: 53).
The commentator, Ibn Kathir has explained this
verse in these words:
“Soon We shall make manifest the truth of the
Qur’an through the external arguments of
reasoning.”
This verse of the Qur’an needs to be looked at in the
context of posterity. These are the words of a Being
before whom are ranged not only the generations of
that time, but all succeeding generations.
