The Qur’an with vowel points has not changed until our day

Allah stated in the verses that the Qur'an is unchangeable:
...THERE IS NO CHANGINGTHE WORDS OF Allah... (Surat al-An'am, 34)
The Words of your Lord are perfect in truthfulness and justice. NO ONE
CAN CHANGE HIS WORDS. He isthe All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. (Surat
al-An'am, 115)
IT IS WE WHO HAVE SENTDOWN THE REMINDER AND WE WHO WILL PRESERVE IT.
(Surat al-Hijr,9)
It is truly a noble Qur'an in a WELL PROTECTED Book. (Surat al-Waqi'a, 77-78)
FALSEHOOD CAN NOT REACH IT FROM BEFORE ITOR BEHIND IT – it is a
revelation from One Who is All-Wise, Praiseworthy. (Surah Fussilat,
42)
As our Lord reveals in the verses above the Qur'an will remain
unchanged. The Qur'an has not survived to our day merely in written
form. Inthe time of our Prophet (saas) there were hafidhs learning the
Qur'an by heart. Consequently the Qur'an with vowel points in our day
was prepared in a way convenient to the memorization of the Hafidhs of
the time. The Qur'an memorized by the Hafidhs of the time of our our
Prophet (saas) is exactly the same as the Qur'an in our day
insha'Allah.

1a. There is a great secret in the difficulttests undergone by the Prophets

1a
the Prophet Job (as) displayed fortitude in the face of sickness and
physical difficulties, the Prophet Aaron (as) sought to win over a
pagan people who rejected him, the Prophet John (as) was martyred by
the deniers of his time and the Prophet Jesus (as) strove against the
snares of the hypocrites. These holy prophets wereall subjected to
great tests. The Muslims who followed the prophets also confronted
similar difficulties. People who came to believe after seeing the
proofs that Allah bestowed on the Prophet Moses (as) did so even in
the knowledge that Pharaoh would cut off their opposite hands and feet
and then kill them. The companions of our Prophet (saas) strove
against the deniers who forced them from their lands, inflicted
unbelievable tortures on them and even chose to martyr them. Believers
have been faced by severetests when cast into the flames by a society
of non-believers. Almighty Allah describes the situation of believers
cast into the flames as follows in verses:
Cursed be the Companions of the Pit –
The fire well stocked with fuel –
When they were seated right beside it
Witnessing what they did to the believers.
The only reason they punished them was because they believed in Allah,
the Almighty, the All-Praiseworthy –
Him to whom the Kingdom of the heavensand the earth belongs. Allah is
Witness of all things.
Those who persecute men and women of the believers, and then do not
repent, will have thepunishment of Hell, will have the punishment of
the Burning. (Surat al-Buruj, 4-10)
Of course Almighty Allah is He who creates, with a special creation,
prophets and believers and those believers who warn their communities,
who turn toHim, who love Him above all and live for Him alone. He has
created them for paradise. But they are nevertheless tested in the
life of this world. There is a secret behind this. The test and the
difficulties involved in it are a sign ofsuperiority, love,
self-sacrifice and a genuine and sincere love of Allah. The prophets
addto their own beauty with the fortitude, honesty, self-sacrifice,
loyalty, devotion and moral virtuethey display. These moral virtues,
which make themone of the most valuable elements of paradise, are a
superior and worthy fortitude in the face of difficulty and submission
to Allah. Almighty Allah has prepared this difficult environment of
the test inorder for us and even them to witness their devotion and
love to Him.There is no doubt that Almighty Allah always supports and
protects believers and is always bytheir side. That is why it isso
valuable for believers to know this and display fortitude in difficult
environments. The prophets and those believers who follow them will
certainly enjoy eternal life in the hereafter and the finest reward
for this excellent fortitude. Almighty Allah reveals in verses:
Such people will be repaid for their steadfastness with the Highest
Paradise, wherethey will meet with welcome and with 'Peace'. They will
remain in it timelessly, for ever. What an excellent lodging and
abode! (Surat al-Furqan, 75-76)

1. There is a great secret in the difficulttests undergone by the Prophets

1.
Almighty Allah of course knows that all the prophets He created were
pure believers possessed of lofty moral values; it is He Who created
them with a true depth and pure faith. Yet despite being our Lord's
chosen, superior and honored servants, the prophets were still
subjected to difficult tests all through their lives. Difficulties are
a great means whereby people could witness theirhonesty and adopt
their moral values as role models, for the prophets to improve their
closenessto and love of Allah, and for their goodness to increase many
times over in the Hereafter.
This climate of testing is described by means of thestories related in
the Qur'an. When he came to the sea, pursued by Pharaoh's army, the
Prophet Moses (as) saw no apparent way of escape. Those who failed to
properly appreciate theinfinite might of Allah said, "We are trapped,"
but as revealed in verses the Prophet Moses (as) said "Never! My Lord
is with me and He will guide me." (Surat ash-Shuara', 62)
Throughout that difficult time when he was imprisoned in the belly of
the fish, the Prophet Jonah (as) constantly turned to Allah and, as
revealed in a verse, "...called out (to the Lord) in absolute
despair." (Surat al-Qalam,47) The Prophet Jonah (as), who sincerely
turned to Allah during this difficult test, was rescued from the belly
of the fish through our Lord's mercy and compassion, and was then sent
to a communityas their prophet. This difficult test of the Prophet
Jonah is described as follows in the Qur'an:
Jonah too was one of the Messengers.
When he ran away to the fully laden ship
and cast lots and lost.
Then the fish devoured him and he was to blame.
Had it not been that he was a man who glorified Allah,
he would have remained inside its bellyuntil the Day they are raised again.
So We cast him up onto the beach and he was sick;
and We caused a gourd tree to grow over him.
We sent him to a hundred thousand or even more.
They believed and so We gave them enjoyment for a time.
(Surat as-Saffat, 139-148)
When our holy Prophet (saas) was attacked by the pagans on two sides
together with his community there appeared to be no escape.This was
the day of a most difficult test. At the same time, it was a very
special test in which true believers with a genuine faith in Allah,
Who trustedin Allah's help with all their hearts, and who trusted in
and embraced Him, could remain strong and expect His help. As ordained
by Allah, those who were unable to properly appreciate Him and the
hypocrites lost hope of His mercy and began dreaming up false ideas of
their own. Our All-Mighty Lord described this difficult climate in
another verse:
When they came at you from above you and below you, when your eyes
rolled and your hearts rose to your throats, and you thought unworthy
thoughts about Allah, atthat point the believers were tested and
severely shaken.
When hypocrites and people with sickness in their hearts said, 'What
Allah and His Messengerpromised us was mere delusion.' and a group of
them said, 'People of Yathrib, Your position is untenable so return!'
some of them asked the Prophet to excuse them,saying, 'Our houses are
exposed,' when they were not exposed; it was merely that they wanted
to run away. (Surat al-Ahzab, 10-13)
In this difficult climate, our Prophet (saas) and the pure believers
with him hoped for Allah's helpand support and placed their trust in
Him, saw that this had been promised by our AlmightyLord and gave
thanks. Almighty Allah reveals in a verse:
When the believers saw the Confederates they said: 'This is what Allah
and His Messenger promised us. Allah and His Messenger told us the
truth.' It only increased them in faith and in submission. (Surat
al-Ahzab, 22)
As our Lord reveals in a later verse; "Allah made it unnecessary for
the believers to fight. Allah is Most Strong, Almighty." (Surat
al-Ahzab, 25)
The Prophet Yusuf (as) also underwent many great tests and hardships
in his life. The way he wasfalsely accused and left in a dungeon for
years are ofcourse very difficult tests. But there is no doubt thatone
of the greatest tests he faced, and bore bravelyand happily for
Allah's approval, is the way he was thrown into a well byhis brothers
at an early age and waited in the darkness to be rescued. If a caravan
had not passed by during his time in the well, if the people in it had
not decided to draw water from the well, then he would have gone
through a martyrdom lasting several days. Thereis no doubt that
everything happens by Allah's Will, however. Allah created Prophet
Yusuf (as) as a worthy, superior and holy prophetand also ordained his
salvation in the finest manner in destiny.
The Prophet Lot (as) alsostruggled against the pressure from a heretical people,

The question Darwinism and materialism will never be able to answer: what is the origin of life?

(The following is an excerpt from the book titled Origins of Life*, by
Hugh Ross ** and Fazale Rana *** )
Currently scientists stand no closer to understanding life's beginning
than they did when Stanley Miller conducted his first experiments
fifty years ago. Though some scientists assert that the research is in
its infancy, significant resources have been brought to bear on the
origin of life question over the past five decades. To date, no real
answers have emerged. Rather, a misguided approach has essentially
stalled the research program.
Best-selling author Paul Davies makes this point inhis book The Fifth Miracle:
When I set out to write this book, I was convincedthat science was
close to wrapping up the mystery of life's origin… Having spent a year
or two researching in the field, I am now of the opinion that there
remains a hugegulf in our understanding… This gulf in understanding is
not merely ignorance about certain technical details; itis a major
conceptual lacuna. (Paul Davies, The Fifth Miracle:The Searchfor the
Origin and Meaning of Life (New York: Simon & Schuster, 1999), pp.
17-18)
Davies' statements likely surprise most people, including scientists.
From popular media reports, one would think researchers have all but
finalized the explanation for life's beginning. But such is not the
case.
Davies explains why this mismatch persists between public perception
and stark reality:
Many investigators feel uneasy about stating in public that the origin
of life is a mystery, even though behind closed doors they freely
admit that they are baffled. There seems to be two reasons for their
unease. First, they feel it opens the door to religious …..
explanations. Second, they worry that a frank admission of ignorance
will undermine funding. (Davies, pp.17-18)
So scientists are keeping quiet and searching for new directions in
which to proceed. Their behind-the-scenes frustration became evident
(to these authors) at the combined meetings of the International
Society for the Study of the Origin of Life and the International
Conference on the Origin of Life, held both in 1999 at the University
of California, San Diego, and in 2002 in Oaxaca, Mexico (hereafter
referred to as ISSOL 1999 or ISSOL 2002). This joint scientific
meeting, held every three years, attracts leading origin of life
investigators from around the world and serves as a platform for them
to share and discuss their latest findings.
The atmosphere at such gatherings typically crackles with anticipation
as participants gather to hear about new discoveries and
breakthroughs. However, at both of these last two ISSOL events, a grim
mood laced with desperation prevailed. Participants acknowledged that
some fifty years of well-funded investigation have led to one
barricade after another. The old intractable problems remain as new
ones cometo light. (Fazale R. Rana, "Origin-of-Life Predictions Face
Off: Evolution vs Biblical Creation," Facts for Faith 6 (Q2 2001),
pp.41-47)
…..Origin of life researchers cannot identify any location on
primordial Earth suitable for production of prebioticmolecules. Those
studyingthe problems cannot explain how the uniform "handedness"
(homochirality) of amino acids, nucleotids, and sugars could emerge in
any so-called prebiotic soup.
Data from the geological, geochemical, and fossil records all place
impossible constraints on naturalistic scenarios. Life arose rapidly
and early in Earth's history - as soon asEarth could possible support
it. Origin of life researchers recognize thatlife had no more than
tens of millions of years to emerge. Life also appeared under
amazingly harsh conditions - conditions that would not allow life to
survive, let alone originate.
Earth's first life was complex chemically… Consistent with this.
Investigators have discovered that life in its most minimal form
requires an astonishing number of proteins that must be spatially and
temporally organized within the cell.
Many [under the leadership of militant atheist Richard Dawkins
converted to the Space Religion ] now speculate that life may have
originated somewhere other than on Earth.
