The Quran is the central religious text of Islam, believed by Muslims to be a revelation from God. It is widely regarded as the finest work in classical Arabic literature. It is organized in 114 chapters (surah), which consist of verses (ayat).
The Quran describes itself as "the discernment, the mother book, the guide, the wisdom, the remembrance and the revelation".
The Quran teaches their followers to worship the one true God, obey His commands and follow His messengers, to refrain from sins and wickedness, respect the rights of other living creatures .

[*]The Quran explains the purpose of life
[*]The Quran teaches the Oneness of Allah
[*]The Quran teaches moral, social and spiritual values
[*]The Quran presents the Prophet as the perfect role model
[*]The impact of Quranic teachings on everyday life
The Quran strongly forbids bad behaviour, consuming alcohol, drugs, selfish habits like sexual indecency and adultery, gambling and taking of interest in business, jealousy, backbiting arrogance and anger. The Quran teaches, ‘give up these for sanity and happiness’ since people with these vices are trapped in a degrading cycle of evil that makes theirs and other’s lives miserable.
