The Qur'an: A Word About It.

     As-Salaam alaikum,   The root word of QUR'AN expresses the idea of gathering together and totalization. According to Ibn Arabi, the Qur'an is perpetually new for any of those who read it (Futuhat MK: vol.3, page 108)- he says:

  "It (the Qur'an) came down upon the heart of Muhammad,
   and it does not cease to come down upon the hearts of the
   faithful of his community up to the Day of the Resurrection.
   Its descent upon hearts is always new, for it is perpetual
   Revelation.."

 Indeed, the Qur'an is an ocean without shore. The limits that it sets for faith (Imaan) and for works are never annulled, the Law remains indefeasible in this world and through it man achieves supreme perfection. For Sayyadi Ibn Arabi, the Qur'an is a treasure whose abundance is truly infinite, and the Isharat, the allusions in it to Divine Secrets which can be perceived by those who listen to it in a state of perfect Ummiyya, are countless.
