Title: Arabic:- Disputes, a hindrance in Islamic Ideology? Q2

Salamun Alaikum

Dear All

This is the continuing part of 'Arabic:- Disputes, a hindrance in Islamic Ideology? Q1'.

About the Dialect, I found :

"The Quran was revealed in 7 Dialects and 7 Modes (ahruf) to facilitate the memorization , as not all of the companions of the Prophet were not from his tribe, nor all were literate enough to learn a new dialect for learning Quran.

These 7 Dialects or even 7 modes (in which synonyms of the words are used such as Salat ul Asr in Mushaf of ibn Masud instead of Salat ul Wusta in Uthmanic Mushaf) these 7 Dialects or 7 Modes do not represent the 7 meanings or 7 Aspects of the Quran. The Meaning is one, and it is preserved as per the promise of Allah in (Al-Hijr: 9).

The above mentioned details I cannot find confirmation in the Quran. Moreover, it implies that Quran must have been difficult for even the Messenger(S) (specially when it is believed that Mohammad(S) was an unlettered. And for the companions too.

But Allah says that Quran is easy. (54:17)
Please elucidate.

Salaam,

For me, this article proved to be extremely useful as the topic is usually confusing, with many people using words interchangeably.

After reading it, I  got a better understanding of the terminology and factual differences that exist.

Dear Joseph Sir

I read only a few articles so far but cannot stop reading more of them.

Hope to keep learning from you Dear Sir.
