Several Arabs attempted to answer the challenge of the Prophet however, all were struck by fear, one such person was Al Muqaffa's son, renowned for his eloquent tongue. He had started his attempt at composition when he heard a young Muslim boy reciting from the Koran, "Earth, swallow up your waters" (11:44). The recitation had such a tremendous effect upon him that he returned and destroyed all that he had written saying, "I bear witness that this is not to be opposed, they are not the words of a human!"
In Andalusia, Spain a man by the name of Yahya, Hakkam Al Ghazzal's son, who was a well known writer sought to attempt to produce something akin to the Koran. Whilst doing so he looked for a sample to emulate and read the chapter "The Oneness" (112). He started work on his composition but he was struck by fear and declared, "Fear has stopped me and weakness has caused me to regret and repent."
The Divine Protection of the Koran
Unlike any other scripture, Allah has promised to preserve His Holy Book until the end of time, and this is yet another of its qualities that cannot be imitated. Allah assures us, "It is We who sent down the Koran, and We watch over it" (15:9). And of its purity He tells us, "falsehood does not come to it from before it or from behind it. It is the sending down from the One, the Wise, the Praised" (41:42).
With the exception of the miraculous Koran, all the other miracles ceased to exist after the time of their prophet and only narrations of their wonders remain.
Whereas the Glorious Koran contains clear verses and miracles all of which are present in this day and age and will remain so despite the passing of centuries. This miracle is a decisive proof that no truthful person would ever doubt.
Each era has produced many people who clarify and transmit the science of language as well as eloquent imams, and men who skillfully craft words.
Those who deviated have been proven to be ineffective and their opposition flawed, none have been able to produce a valid argument, nor yet compose even a couple of words which would detract an atom's weight from the Koran.
Additional Challenges in the Koran
Scholars have also drawn attention to various other facets of the inability of mankind to imitate the Arabic Koran. One such facet is that it has been observed that neither reciter nor listener ever tire of its recital. It has been found that the repeated recitation of the Koran serves only to increase its sweetness which in turn causes a greater love, whereas, other words, even though they may be of the most eloquent lose their attraction and in the long term turn to be tedious.
The Arabic Holy Koran is a delight to recite in times of solitude and an excellent companion during times of
