Can we consider the Vedas and other Hindu scriptures to be the word of God?Answer:    1.  Revelation sent in every periodThe Glorious Qur’an mentions in Surah Rad, chapter 13 verse 38"For each period is a book (revealed)."                          [Al-Qur’an 13:38]2.  Four revelations of God mentioned by name in Qur’anBy name, only four revelations of God are mentioned in the Qur’an i.e. Torah, Zaboor, Injeel and the Qur’anTorah is the revelation which was given to Moses (pbuh)Zaboor is the revelation which was given to David (pbuh)Injeel is the revelation which was given to Jesus (pbuh)and Qur’an is the last and final revelation which was given to the last and final Messenger Muhammad (pbuh).3.  All the previous revelations sent only for their peopleAll the revelations that came before Qur’an were only sent for their own people and were to be followed only for a particular time period.4.  The Qur’an sent for whole humankindSince the Qur’an is the last and final revelation, it was not sent only for the Muslims or the Arabs but it was sent for the whole of humankind. It is mentioned in:a.  Surah Ibrahim, chapter 14 verse 1"Alif Lam Ra. A book which We have revealed unto thee, in order that thou mightest lead mankind out of the depths of darkness into light . . ."                               [Al-Qur’an 14:1]b.  A similar message is repeated in Surah Ibrahim chapter 14 verse 52"Here is a Message for mankind: let them take warning therefrom, and let them know that He is (no other than) One God: let men of understanding take heed."                              [Al-Qur’an 14:52]c.  Qur’an mentions in Surah Baqarah chapter 2 verse 185"Ramadan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur’an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgement (between right and wrong)."                               [Al-Qur’an 2:185]d.  A similar message is repeated in Surah Zumur chapter 39 verse 41"Verily We have revealed the Book to thee in Truth, for (instructing) mankind."                                [Al-Qur’an 39:41]5.  Which revelation sent to India?The question that arises is "which revelation of God was sent to India and whether we can consider the Vedas and the other Hindu Scriptures to be the revelations of God?" There is no text in the Qur’an or Sahih Hadith mentioning the name of the revelation that was sent to India. Since the names of the Vedas or other Hindu scriptures are no where to be found in Qur’an and Sahih Hadith, one cannot say for sure that they were the revelations of God. They may be the revelation of God or may not be the revelation of God.6.  Even if the Veda was the word of God today you have to follow the Qur’anEven if the Vedas and the other scriptures were the revelations from God, they were only meant for people of that time and were to be followed only for that particular period of time. Today all human beings through out the world including India should only follow the last and final Revelation of God, i.e. the Qur’an. Moreover since all the previous revelations were not meant to be followed for eternity, Almighty God did not preserve them in their original form. There is not a single religious scripture of any of the major religions which claims to be the word of God and has maintained its pure original text and is free from alteration, adulteration and interpolation. Since the Glorious Qur’an is to be followed for eternity, Allah (swt) has taken upon Himself to maintain its original purity and guard it from corruption. Allah says in Glorious Qur’an.Surah Hijr chapter 15 verse 9"We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption)."                                           [Al-Qur’an 15:9]QUR’AN PLAGIARIZED FROM THE BIBLE :QuestionIs it not true that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has copied the Qur’an from the Bible?AnswerMany critics allege that Prophet Muhummad (pbuh) himself was not the author of the Qur’an but he learnt it and/or plagiarised (copied or adapted) it from other human sources or from previous scriptures or revelations.1.    MUHUMMAD LEARNT THE QUR’AN FROM A ROMAN BLACKSMITH WHO WAS A CHRISTIANSome Pagans accused the Prophet of learning the Qur’an from a Roman Blacksmith, who was a Christian staying at the outskirts of Makkah. The Prophet very often used to go and watch him do his work. A revelation of the Qur’an was sufficient to dismiss this charge - the Qur’an says in Surah An-Nahl chapter 16 verse 103:"We know indeed that they say, ‘It is a man that teaches him,’ The tongue of him they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this is Arabic, pure and clear."                          [Al-Qur’an 16:103]How could a person whose mother tongue was foreign and could hardly speak little but of poor broken Arabic be the source of the Qur’an which is pure, eloquent, fine Arabic? To believe that the blacksmith taught the Prophet the Qur’an is some what similar to believing that a Chinese immigrant to England, who did not know proper English, taught Shakespeare.</blockquote>
