The Qur’an Isn’t Called One Thing—Here’s Why

The Qur’an refers to itself by multiple names—Qur’an, Furqān, Kitāb, and Tanzīl—and each name reveals a different dimension of its divine purpose. These are not poetic variations or stylistic choices; they are intentional descriptions that explain what the Qur’an does, how it functions, and why it was revealed. In this lecture, we explore how each name highlights a distinct role of the Qur’an: • Qur’an as a recited revelation meant to be heard, preserved, and lived • Furqān as a criterion that separates truth from falsehood • Kitāb as a written, authoritative scripture that governs belief and practice • Tanzīl as a revelation sent down deliberately, with wisdom and purpose Understanding these names deepens our relationship with the Qur’an and corrects the common mistake of treating it as a book only for recitation or ritual. The Qur’an defines itself—our responsibility is to listen. This video is ideal for students of knowledge, new Muslims, and anyone seeking a clearer understanding of the Qur’an’s mission in guiding individuals and transforming societies.
