Respected brother/sister

The main holy scripture of Islam is the Holy Qur'an. However, there are two terms we must understand. 1.Mushaf and 2.Qur'an.

The Qur'an is the collection of the words of our creator Allah ta'ala. The form in which the Qur'an is present infront of us today i.e. the book form is called the Mushaf (meaning it is the written form of the words of Allah revealed to the Prophet peace be upon him by means of divine revelation).

The next thing is the sunnah. The sunnah are the sayings, actions,

And Allah knows best
