Thread 🧵 :
Multitudes of scholars from western, eastern, religious and non-religious backgrounds have testified to the Qur’an’s inimitability. Below is a non-exhaustive list of the scholarship that forms the testimony that the Qur’an cannot be emulated [non muslims list] :⬇️
The above confirmations of the inimitability of the Qur’an are a small sample from the innumerable testimonies available to us.
I will do more threads in sha Allah on the topic and more lists and qoutes from muslim scholars next time, and maybe a part 2 of non-Muslim scholars.
