Revelation of the Quran: story and specificity - Al-dirassa https://en.al-dirassa.com/the-story-of-revelation-of-the-quran/ Wahy – divine inspiration and revelation In Arabic, wahy means to inform secretly. In religious vocabulary, we use it to indicate that Allah – tells the one whom He has elected among His servants of what He wants to make known to Him in terms of guidance and knowledge, and this, in a secret way, unfamiliar to humans. Thus, linguistic meaning includes inspiration due to the man’s natural disposition (fitrah). We find this in His Word – Exalted be He : “And We inspired the mother of Moses [this]: ‘Breastfeed it'” And We inspired the mother of Musa (Moses), (saying): “Suckle him [Musa (Moses)], but when you fear for him, then cast him into the river and fear not, nor grieve. Verily! We shall bring him back to you, and shall make him one of (Our) Messengers.“. [28:7]
