Other names of the Quran
8:18:10 2023-04-03 3917

The Qur’an is known by many other names. However, it goes without saying that “Qur’an” is the most often used name. This is mentioned in the Qur’an: “Most certainly, it is a most honorable Qur’an (recited)” (al-Waqiah 56:77)

1. Al-Kitab: meaning the Qur’an

This is the Book: there is no doubt about it. (al-Baqarah 2:1–2).

2. Al-Furqan:

meaning the Criterion for right and wrong, it was given this title because it differentiates between the truth and false, the lawful and unlawful.

3. Adh-Dhikr:

which means a reminder, to remember. The Qur’an was given this title because it is a reminder of Allah.
Indeed it is We Who sent down the Reminder in parts, and it is indeed We Who are its Guardian (al-Hijr 15:9).

4. Al-Huda:

meaning guidance. The Book of Allah was given this name because it guides the people to the path of truth.
“…as guidance for the people…” (Al Imran 3:4).

Allaah also described the Quran with many attributes (and adjectives) among which are: Noor (Light), Shifaa’ (Cure), Rahmah (Mercy), Maw’idhah (Admonition), Mubaarak (Blessed), Mubeen (Clear), Bushrah (Glad Tiding), ‘Azeez (Honourable and Respected), Majeed (Glorious), Basheer (Glad Tiding), Majeed (Glorious), Nadheer (Warner), and At-Tanzeel (The Revelation). However, the most well-known names are Al-Qur’aan and Al-Kitaab.
