Revelation and Compilation

- Why were the surahs of the Mushaf not arranged according to the order of their revelation?
- Was the Prophet (peace be upon him) able to read and write after his prophethood, and did he write the Qur’an with his own hand, based on the verse: "And you did not recite before it any book, nor did you inscribe it with your your right hand; for then the falsifiers would have doubted" (29:48), and that his miracle was in his reading and writing of the Qur’an after he was illiterate, and that his rejection of the compilation of the Qur’an before his death (peace be upon him) and his rejection of the Prophetic Sunnah except what agreed with the Qur’an, and his interpretation of "Iqra’" (Read) in the cave of Hira’ as meaning that the Preserved Tablet was before him for him to read from, by analogy with people reading their books on the Day of Judgment?

- How can one respond to those who consider the Qur’an and Sunnah to be invalid, based on arguments such as the weakness of hadith, the repetition of verses for personal reasons, the revelation of the Qur’an without diacritical marks, the recording of hadith long after the Prophet's time, in addition to sectarian differences and mutual excommunication?

- How do I distance myself from committing sins through the Qur'an?
- Is the abrogation of turning towards Al-Aqsa Mosque not an abrogation, because it is an abrogation of a ruling, which is not known whether the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did it through his own ijtihad or by Allah's command, given that revelation is not confined to the Quran?
- Was the Prophet's explanation of the Qur'an bound by his time and subject to change, or was it comprehensive for all times and places and not open to independent reasoning (ijtihad)?

- Is it possible to find someone who would read new thoughts and reflections on the meanings of the Holy Quran, such as those concerning Surah Al-An'am (6:75-78) regarding the gradual nature of guidance and its compatibility with the Hadith Qudsi, for evaluation and correction?
