31 Preface وَالَّذي أَوحَينا إِلَيكَ مِنَ الكِتابِ هُوَ الحَقُّ مُصَدِّقًا لِما بَينَ يَدَيهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِعِبادِهِ لَخَبيرٌ بَصيرٌYusuf AliThat which We have revealed to thee of the Book is the Truth,- confirming what was (revealed) before it: for God is assuredly- with respect to His Servants - well acquainted and1 Fully Observant.All Revelation is one. The Qur-ān therefore confirms the main and uncorrupted features of previous revelations. It must be so, because God is fully cognisant of the needs of every age and people; and therefore His Message, while it meets those needs, must in essence be the same. His Messengers did not meet each other as men; but their contact with God through inspiration unified their Message. And He cares for and watches over all men, and He knows fully what their needs are, even better than they know themselves.
