Lesson one hundred eleven :Freshness of Quran
Imam Reza( A. S. )said:
إنَّ اللّه تَعالَى لَمْ يَجْعَلِ الْقُرآنَ لِزَمان دُوْنَ زَمانٍ وَ لا لِناسٍ دُوْنَ ناسٍ فَهُوَ فِى كُلِّ زمانِ جَدِيدٌ وَ عِنْدَ كُلِّ قَوْمٍ غَضٌّ إلى يَوْمِ الْقِيامَةِ
Translation
God has not confined Quran to a special time, neither for a special nation, and so it is new at any time and fresh for each nation..
Brief description
Imam( A. S. )gave the above reply to one who had asked why Quran does not get old by repeated study, recitation and publication? In this saying, Imam has a meaningful refer to this reality that Quran is not created by the material world and man's transient and variable thoughts. So dust of oldness does not cover it by lapse of time. Rather, it has originated from the science and knowledge of the Great God, whose existence is pre- eternal and everlasting. The more it is read, the more, it becomes new and interesting, and really this is one of the signs of Quran's magnitude.
