ترجمة الآية 37 من سورة Yunus - English - سورة يونس : عدد الآيات 109 - - الصفحة 213 - الجزء 11.
And this Quran is not such as could ever be produced by other than Allah (Lord of the heavens and the earth), but it is a confirmation of (the revelation) which was before it [i.e. the Taurat (Torah), and the Injeel (Gospel), etc.], and a full explanation of the Book (i.e. laws and orders, etc, decreed for mankind) - wherein there is no doubt from the the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns, and all that exists).
And it was not [possible] for this Qur'an to be produced by other than Allah, but [it is] a confirmation of what was before it and a detailed explanation of the [former] Scripture, about which there is no doubt, from the Lord of the worlds.
(10:37) And this Qur'an is such that it could not be composed by any unless it be revealed from Allah. It is a confirmation of the revelation made before it and a detailed exposition of the Book. *45 Beyond doubt it is from the Lord of the universe.
*45).The statement that it is 'a confirmation of the revelation made before it' underscores that the Qur'an lays no claim of introducing anything novel, of coming forth with any innovation at variance with the fundamental teachings already communicated to man through the Prophets (peace be on them). The Qur'anic claim merely consists of confirming and authenticating those teachings. Had the Qur'an been the product of the imagination of the founder of an altogether new religion, the outcome of a creative brain, it would have borne traces of novelty in order to emphasize its distinctiveness.
The second part of the statement, namely that the Qur'an is a 'detailed exposition of the Book' is equally significant. What this means is that the Qur'an elaborates those fundamental teachings which constitute the core and essence of all the scriptures (al-Kitab); that is, those teachings which have been sufficiently elucidated in the Qur'an so that they might be grasped by people and penetrate their hearts; and additionally, it has been shown how those teachings could be applied to practical life.
