Is the Quran's challenge to the Arabs void due to the impossibility of proving the production of its like, and the Muslims' claim of the Quran's rhetorical inimitability, while none of the poets of the Mu'allaqat were from Quraysh, and what is the evidence of the disbelievers' inability to counter the Quran, given the possibility that their responses were removed from heritage books?

The proofs of the Quran's divine origin and its being from God are not limited to its challenge to the Arabs alone. Rather, they are multiple arguments, including: the Prophet's affirmation that the Quran was not his own, his illiteracy, its rhetorical aspect, and the numerous verses within it (dealing with the unseen, legislation, ethics, and history). The Quran repeatedly challenged all Arabs to produce something like it, then ten surahs, then a single surah, and allowed them to seek help, yet they failed and resorted to swords instead of words. The Arabs' determination to oppose was not due to a lack of motivating reasons, but because the the Quran itself garnered their admiration. Scholars explain that the challenge is not in the linguistic form itself, but in its eloquent virtue, and that the Quran's style is unparalleled by any other style. The claim that history did not preserve attempts at opposition is unfounded, as some oppositions were indeed preserved, and the Quran preserved the nature of the oppositions during its era, along with God's admonishment of His Messenger. Books opposing Islam and the Quran have remained, yet they have not risen to the level of opposing it in the aforementioned manner.
