4 Dimensions of Quran

The development of research on the Qur'an during the last 100 years continued to show progress. Many discoveries that enrich the repertoire of  Quran sciences. This makes it more interesting to study the Quran. Correlate with quran research, Fahmi Basya Hamdi (Indonesian quran researcher) divine Quran at least in Four Dimensions :

• 1st Dimension : Writing

           
          

 This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah (02:2)-
       
The oldest Quran, known as The Ottoman manuscripts, can found in Samarqand, UZBEZKISTAN. Now we can imagine, this is the writing manuscripts there is no doubt within, even to the single letter. Because of  it's no doubt, it allows us to count the number of  letters Qoran, which cannot be if counting only from reading. Thus, the Qur'an can be used as a reliable scientific data, because it has the accuracy of the letter.

The revelation of the Book is from Allah , the Exalted in Might, the Wise. (45:2)

• 2nd Dimension : Reading

We have been this misperception by this READING. We always thought he was ordinary reading,  but it is a wonderful reading.So, if you have a Qoran at home, never read, it means you have only a first dimension of Quran.


 

Indeed, it is We who have sent down to you, [O Muhammad], the Qur'an progressively. (76:23)

Assuredly We (nahnu reiterates the subject of innā, ‘assuredly, for the purpose of emphasis; alternatively it is a separating pronoun) have revealed the Qur’ān to you as a gradual revelation (tanzīlan is the predicate of inna, ‘assuredly’), in other words, We have divided it into parts instead of not revealing it all at once. 

Based on Quran, this is the reading:

a. Reading which cannot made by Jinn and or Human

 

Say, "If mankind and the jinn gathered in order to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like of it, even if they were to each other assistants."  (17:88)
b. Reading which makes mountains break apart

If We had sent down this Qur'an upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and coming apart from fear of Allah . And these examples We present to the people that perhaps they will give thought. (59:21)

 

• 3rd Dimension : Meaning

A person who receives the message, need to know the meaning of the message. The question is: "How to interpret the meaning of words in the Quran?" Quran itself answer this question with verse:

And they do not come to you with an argument except that We bring you the truth and the best explanation. (25:33)

In the Qur'an described the Meaning of words and The Qur'an describes this way: Make example sentences. For example:

1. NOT PERCEIVE

To know the best meaning of those words, we need to know the story of Solomon and his troops when they came at the Ant Hills, as described in:

 




Until, when they came upon the valley of the ants, an ant said, "O ants, enter your dwellings that you not be crushed by Solomon and his soldiers while they perceive not."
27:18

So if you want to know the meaning of a word in Quran, then you can open the pages and find out the meaning by analyze the word in another verse or Surah. And with Allah permition, you will able to know the meaningful word in one ayah by another ayah. That's way Quran also said by God as the Best explanation.

• 4th Dimension : Fact

the keyword ---> AYAH = VERSE = CODE

For every happening is a finality; and you are going to know
(6:67)

 

And you will surely know [the truth of] its information after a time."
(38:88)

And there are so many facts in the universe. We will know the information after a time. For example, in 16th century, people didn't know that earth is round. They believe that the earth is flat and as the center of the milky way. But it's abandoned in 19th century after Heliocentris theory prooved by science.

In the Qur'an it is said that the Prophet Zechariah asked for the code have a son, so God gives the CODE.

[Zechariah] said, "My Lord, make for me A CODE." He said, "Your CODE is that you will not speak to the people for three nights, [being] sound." (19:10)

In fact dimensions, verses  as CODE , not writings. We can see again that sign (ayah) mean CODE, from this Quran statement:

We will show them Our CODES in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness? (41:53)

Importance of Words in Quran: WONDER

We people are always attracted to the Wonders of Nature. The Wonders in the Quran, one of it is mentioned in Surah al-Kahf.

Or have you thought that the companions of the cave and the inscription were, among Our signs, a wonder?  ('Ajaban) (18:9)

And in surah Al-Jin, This was at the time of the morning prayer at Batn Nakhla, a location between Mecca and Tā’if — these [jinn] being those mentioned in God’s saying, And when We sent a company of jinn your way…’ [Q. 46:29] — listened, to my recitation, then said, to their people upon returning to them: “We have indeed heard a marvellous Qur’ān, whose clarity, the richness of its meanings and other aspects one marvels at,and Jin said that the Qur'an was a wonderful ('Ajaban) recitation.

As also mentioned in the surat Qof:2, that the Qur'an it is SOMETHING  WONDER

But they wonder that there has come to them a warner from among themselves, and the disbelievers say, "This is a wonderful thing. (50:2)

How is it WONDER?.
This is where the importance of the word. Syai un 'ujab was repeated by wife of Abraham's when she would have a son, while she was an old woman.

She said, "Woe to me! Shall I give birth while I am an old woman and this, my husband, is an old man? Indeed, this is a wonderful thing!"  ('Ajiibun)   (11:72) 

Then at this statement do you wonder? (53:59)

He said, "Did you see when we retired to the rock? Indeed, I forgot [there] the fish. And none made me forget it except Satan - that I should mention it. And it took its course into the sea wonderly" (18:63)

From those evidences, we can say that If people are to ask about something said in his language, he will get the correct answer, if the word he was looking for his counterpart in the Qur'an, because the Quran contains all the necessary words of human phenomena. Science, and The truth of Science, sustained by the consistency of every word .Without a consistency, Science will collapse.

And now, please have an attention to the number of surah and ayah belows:

It's Consistence and valid!

Al Asmaaul Husna (Quranic Version)

In the Qur'an says that Allah has the Proper Names (Asmaaul-Husna), 

and we humans are asked to call on God with it Asmaaul-Husna.It mentioned on Quran sorah 7:180, or we can say (we hope you accustomed with this kind spelling): DATA 07180. The sound of the verse is as follows:

And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them. And leave [the company of] those who practice deviation concerning His names. They will be recompensed for what they have been doing. 07180

However, we have been accustomed to say that it is Asmaaul-Husna 99 from several people before us. Yet if we look at the Hadith that call, it turns out it was not mentioned in the hadeeth of the words "Names". In the hadith it only mentions the word "Isman" which means "NAME"

Indeed, Allah has 99 names, are 100-1, who gathered him in heaven(Saheeh Muslim, 2302)

The question then:"So how Asmaaul-Husna definition based on the Qur'an?".We humans really need to understand precisely how real-Husna Asmaaul said, because 7180 data were also told that we should leave people who are guilty of mistakes on his name. 

And leave [the company of] those who practice deviation concerning His names.  (07:180)

Therefor to understand Asmaaul-Husna version of the Koran, we need to consider this statement:

There has already been for you an excellent pattern in Abraham and those with him.... (60:4)

Because the Prophet Abraham is a good example, then surely he is a good example also in prayer. And if he prayed would call Asmaaul-Husna. Therefore we consider the Qur'anic verse that exemplifies the Prophet Ibrahim prayed.

   

Our Lord, make us not [objects of] torment for the disbelievers and forgive us, our Lord. Indeed, it is You who is the Exalted in Might, the Wise (Al Azziizul Hakiim)." (60:5)

From Data  60.4 and 60.5, giving meaning to us that defines that Abraham was Asmaaul-Husna formed in A pair of Name. This was evidenced in his other prayers with the Prophet Isma'il when just finished raising the walls of Kaaba

"Our Lord, accept [this] from us. Indeed You are the Hearing, the Knowing.(Assamii'ul  'Aliim) (2:127)

And apparently there are 10 Prophets mentioned in the Quran which convey the couple's name, They are:

1.Prophet Abraham pbuh:

   (02127): Samii’ul-’Aliim
   (02128): Tawwaaburr-Rahiim
