It's not even a bit uncommon among Muslims that if you went to their houses and they made you sit in their drawing rooms, you would see a book wrapped in the best of cloths sitting at the top of the tallest shelf there. If you were to ask them what it was they would say 'That's the Qur'an, the best of books, the book of Allaah Azzawajal. We respect it so much that we've put it as high as we can.'
Let me give you my own introduction of this book first.
This was the book that was sent down to the most ignorant of people, the Arabs, a people whom the superpowers of that time didn't want to rule over because of their ignorance.
What did it do to them?
It transformed them to the extent that they became the rulers of more than half of this world in about 20 years after the completion of this book and these ignorant people became the world's most ideal people.
