The Arabic language existed even before Quran.
And if they are just a meaningless jiberrish, then why didn't those people raised any objection? Why did Allah put words into Quran which are meaningless to us? It essentially implies that they are meaningless to us, and must have been meaningless for the people of Arabia at the time of Prophet Muhammad. This explanation raises several questions. The generally held view among traditional scholarship is that these so-called Huruf-e-Muqattat have hidden meanings known to Allah alone. So anĪrrogant attitude will prevent you from true knowledge, and submission to Allah will open To give you understanding of this religion, you cannot know it of your own accord. The letters in this ayah(verse) Alif, Lam, Meem – show that we cannot know and understandĮverything, so we should put more hope and reliance upon Allah.Īllah lets us know that if you really want to get guidance from this Book – you will ask Allah That we cannot be guided by our own will, we need Allah’s help. In surah al Fatihah, we asked Allah to ‘guide us to the upright path’. To illustrate this point, let's take Surat Al-Baqarah as an example, it also begins with disjointed letters namely ا-ل-م 'alif-lam-mim', one opinion of Ar-Razi is as follows: The point of these letters is to call your attention to the Qur’aan. The word kitaab or Qur’aan occurs in this next verse. Oftentimes, there is an oath involved as well. One particular and interesting remark is:Īn interesting point regarding the suwar that begin with these letters is that the very next aayah is about the Qur’aan. However, a majority position of the ulema is that only Allah knows their true meaning. In this case some claim it means 'O humans' others that it is a name of Yaseen. Just as mtk pointed out, there are many Surahs in the Qur'an that begin with such Ayats(verses).
