Question
What is the argument regarding the Qur'aan being the created or uncreated Word of Allah?
Answer
The topic of the Qur'aan being created or uncreated, is extremely subtle and fraught with kufr. It is in reality a futile, destructive subject churned up by the Mu'tazillis who subscribed to some views of kufr of the philosophers. They claimed that the Qur'aan was the created word of Allah Ta'ala. The belief of the Ahlus Sunnah is that the Qur'aan, not the tangible book, is the Uncreated Word/ Speech of Allah Ta'ala. It is of His Attributes. Shaitaan will entangle you in a web of kufr with this subject. Steer clear of it.
