Question:
This questioner says: In the noble verse, what is the reason for the revelation of this verse? And what is its meaning, “And indeed, it is a reminder for you and your people”?[Al-Fatihah 1:1-2], and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad
Answer:
And upon his family and all his Companions. This verse contains a refutation of those who denied the Qur'an and claimed that it is the myths of the ancients or the words of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Allah (Mighty and Majestic) informed that the Qur'an is a revelation from the Lord of the worlds. Gabriel brought it down to Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) from the Lord of the worlds. So Gabriel conveyed it to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) conveyed it to his Ummah, and the Ummah transmits it from generation to generation until the Hour stands. And His saying (Mighty and Majestic)[Az-Zukhruf 43:44] for you what honor [Az-Zukhruf 43:44] means for the Arabs, and you will be asked about this Qur'an? And this remembrance. On the Day of Resurrection.
