Adapted from the Al-Qur'an surah An-Nisa, I would humbly try to make a study of the interpretation of verse 163 which will relate to us that the of Al-Qur'an is the Book of Revelation for the guidance of mankind. The authenticity of the Al-Qur'an as defined as the Speech of Allah SWT. The revelation was sent down upon to the last Prophet Muhammad s.a.w through the Angel Gabriel, in the precise wording transmitted to us by numerous persons [tawater] both [verbally] and in writing, [imitable and unique] protected by God from corruption. Truly, the Al-Qur'an is solely for the guidance of mankind of religion (Monotheism].
Concerning the aforementioned interpretation of the verse, let us observe the meaning of the verse 163 in surah An-Nisa as narrated below:
Surah An-Nisa verse 163: (The Women)
"Verily, We have sent the revelation to you (O Muhammad s.a.w) as We sent revelation to Noh (Noeh) and the Prophets after him; We (also) sent the revelation to Ibrahim (Abraham), Ismail (Ismael), Ishak (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob). and Al-Asbat (the offspring of the twelve sons of Yaqub [Jacob)' Isa (Jesus), Ayyub (Job) Yunus (Jonah), Harun (Aarun), and Sulaiman (Solomon), and to Dawud (David) We gave the Zabur (Psalms).
"From the above verse of surah An-Nisa which constitutes the revelation and messages in themselves offered the valuable guidance from Allah SWT through the Scripture from God while the revelation [Wahy) is the sense of revelation is the guidance from God for His creator brought by the Prophets who carried and transmit the words of God.
Furthermore, the aforementioned verse prescribe to Prophet s.a.w Allah SWT has sent the revelation to him and so do Prophet Noh and other prophets who came after him. God has also sent the revelation to Ibrahim, Ismail, Ishak, Yahya and his descendants, Isa, Ayub, Yunos, Harun, and Sulaiman and to Daud, We gave Psalms (Zabur).
Revelations were also sent to those Rasools who are responsible to convey the good news to mankind and admonished them. So masseges through the Rasools, disbeliever have no excuse to plead against Allah SWT. In other words, revelations by God to the Prophets and Rasools constitute the three component aspects to the Muslim believers. The first is the INSPIRATION for example the factor of DREAM which is related to Prophet Ibrahim who receive guidance in a vision while asleep to sacrifice his son. The second aspect is SPEECH hidden away where it related that God spoke to {Prophet Musa from the Fire and thirdly to the last and end of our Prophet s.a.w are messages WORDS (speech) sent through messeges from God where it related the God sent angel Gebriel who recited to him God words exactly.
As to the Prophets who are given the book of revelations and Shariah (Islamic Law) and are selected by God to pass on His Messages and are appropriate for a particular nation like all the prophets mentioned above for the sake of mankind like Prophet s.a.w. We should understand that but all prophets were not necessary rosools.
Finally, people may or not believe that Allah SWT bears witnesses the what He has sent with His knowledge and so do the angels though on Allah's SWT testimony is sufficient to the Believers.
Allah is Mighty and Wise
