It is not for me to say that which I have no right to. If I had said it, You knew it. You know what is within my soul, and I do not know what is within Your soul. Indeed, You are the Knower of the unseen.” (116)  Surah Al-Ma’idah, Saadi’s interpretation {And when God said, “O Jesus, son of Mary, did you say to the people, ‘Take me and my mother as gods besides God?’” He said, “Glory be to You! It is not for me to say that which I have no right to. If I had said it, You knew it. You know what is within my soul, and I do not know what is within Your soul.

  Chain Mail Sura 34 of the Quran describes that David had the iron softened for him, which he used to make armor. [34:10] We endowed David with blessings from us: “O mountains, submit with him, and you too, O birds.” We softened the iron for him. وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا دَاوُۥدَ مِنَّا فَضْلًا يَـٰجِبَالُ أَوِّبِى مَعَهُۥ وَٱلطَّيْرَ وَأَلَنَّا لَهُ ٱلْحَدِيدَ [34:11] “You may make shields that fit perfectly, and work righteousness. Whatever you do, I am Seer thereof.” أَنِ ٱعْمَلْ سَـٰبِغَـٰتٍ وَقَدِّرْ فِى ٱلسَّرْدِ وَٱعْمَلُوا۟ صَـٰلِحًا إِنِّى بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ 1 ani أَنِ “That 2 iʿ’mal ٱعْمَلْ make 3 sābighātin سَـٰبِغَـٰتٍ full coats (of armor) 4 waqaddir وَقَدِّرْ and it balanced / measured precisely 5 fī فِى [of] 6 l-sardi ٱلسَّرْدِ the links (of armor), 7 wa-iʿ’malū وَٱعْمَلُوا۟ and work [you all] 8 ṣāliḥan صَـٰلِحًا righteous (deeds), 9 innī إِنِّى Indeed, I am 10 bimā بِمَا of what 11 taʿmalūna تَعْمَلُونَ you [all] do 12 baṣīrun بَصِيرٌ Seer.” Opponents a...

How can the Arabic Qur’an be a miracle for a non-Arab?

  Methodology of response  : We will begin the response in the name of Allah, then consider the origin of the doubt, so that we can argue with what He has decided against what He has denied, and arrive at what He has revealed to what He has concealed, then we will repeat what Allah opens with from the aspects of response, to clarify the truth and remove the ambiguity, and we will pave the way for that with a general answer regarding the miracle, from which we will conclude with detailed aspects of response, according to a progression that examines the state of the non-Arab with the Qur’an. Details of the doubt and clarification of its origin  : Your question contains a doubt, which does not deny the miracle of the Qur’an as a whole, but rather aims to limit it to the Arabs, as if you asked: What is the reason for the non-Arab to enter into the discourse of challenge with the Qur’an, while he lacks the ability to speak Arabic? And how can the miracle of the Prophet of Isla...
