The Quran is the main holy book in Islam,
from Allah. The definition of the Quran is:
it is the holy word of Allah revealed to the

a book of guidance (Ahmad, 2016, p. 207).

The Quran is a miracle, because many
scientists whose research results or
findings have been mentioned in the
Koran. The Koran is the word of Allah,
where the contents of the Quran are the
words of Allah that can be proven even
scientifically. The purpose of this study is
to collect data that the Quran is the most
perfect book that Allah gave to the prophet
Muhammad SAW as the leader of
Muslims in the prophetic era until now.
Al-Qur'anul Karim has a uslub that is very
amazing and different from the uslub
(composition) of human speech. In it there
are several features which can be
summarized as follows:
1) The softness of the Quran in lafziyah is
found in the composition of the sound and
the beauty of the language.
2) The harmony of the Quran is intended
for the layman, as well as the intellectuals.
In a sense, everyone can feel the majesty
and beauty of the Qur'an.
3) The contents are in accordance with
reason and feeling, because the Quran
provides doctrine to the mind and heart
and summarizes both truth and beauty (As-
Sabuny, 1991, Pp. 143-144).
Al-Quran is not a book of nature,
architecture or physics, but a book of

instructions or guides and a book of laws
and improvements. The verses are
inseparable from detailed instructions,
vague truths on several natural, medical,
and geographical problems, all of which
show the miracles of the Koran and its
position as a revelation from Allah SWT.
The Koran was not created by the Prophet
Muhammad, because he was an ummi,
unable to read and write (Yanggo, 2016, p.
15).
Literature Review
Miracle of Quran to The World
Miracle of Quran to the world, many
discoveries have been made by scientists
who have been mentioned in the Quran
such as the layers of the atmosphere as in
Surah Al-Baqarah verse 29 which means
"He is Allah, who made everything on
earth for you and He wills. towards the
heavens, and he made seven heavens. And
He is All-knowing everything." The 7
heavens that Allah created have been
proven by scientists and are named as the
atmosphere, as the power of Allah SWT
who created the 7 heavens to protect the
earth.
Therefore, each of these layers has their
respective functions. Then He headed for
the sky, and the sky was still smoke. So He
made it seven heavens in two times and He
3
 Al-Tadzkiyyah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam, Volume X, No. X, XXXX
20869118
revealed in each heaven its business. "
(Surat Fussilat: 11-12, in Tafsir Ibn
Katsir). Thus in the Quran Allah has
explained that the earth is indeed
composed of various layers (atmospheres).
As for the atmosphere that was formed, it
turned out that it actually consisted of
several different layers and overlapped
with each other. Scientists later discovered
that this was true (that the atmosphere is
composed of several layers) and each layer
has its own characteristics.
The miracle that is told in the Quran about
the existence of a river under the sea is a
miracle recently discovered by scientists
and it has been mentioned in Surah
Fussilat verse 53 (in Tafsir Ibn Katsir)
"We will show them as soon as possible,
the proofs of Our truth. in all corners of
the world and in themselves, until it
became clear to them, that this Quran is
the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord
witnesses everything. "
"And it is He who let the two seas flow
(side by side); this one is tasteless fresh
and the other is still bitter; and He made
between the two walls and boundaries that
hinder" (Surah Al-Furqan: 53 in The noble
Quran).
In several commentaries it is explained
that the verse about the meeting of two
P. ISSN:

seas but the water is not mixed is
described as a river mouth, where there is
a meeting between salt water from the sea
and fresh water from a river. With this
explanation, it is evident that the power of
God is certainly more than what his
creatures can think. Even for phenomena
that seem strange like that, Allah always
has the answer through the Al-Qur'an.
Quran and Healthy Soul
Early researches revealed that holiness and
beliefs are lost in today's world, few
published studies proved the listening and
maintaining the Holy Quran helped in
reduction of depression and stress
(Mohammadi Laeini et al. 2009). The
Quran is a calming book, when reading it
the heart feels it, when listening to the
chanting of the holy Koran the heart also
feels calm. The recitation of the Koran
provides calm for those who listen to it
even though they don't know its meaning
(Thayyarah, 2013).
In addition to being a guide and guidance,
Allah also gives the Quran Allah to make
the Quran a medicine for human health,
both body and soul. As in Surah Yunus: 57
(in the noble Quran, p. 278) "O people,
actually a lesson has come to you from
your Lord and a cure for diseases (that are)
in the chest and guidance and mercy for
4
 Al-Tadzkiyyah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam, Volume X, No. X, XXXX

those who believe. " Therefore, there is a
need to effectively manage these patients.
In this regard, non-pharmacological,
adjunctive interventions, such as listening
to music and spiritual intervention, eg,
prayers, were studied and shown positive
effects in reducing stress and anxiety in
mechanically ventilated patient (Hunter et
al. 2010; Chlan et al. 2013).
Quran Good for Cognitive Ability
Quran is good for cognitive because other
researchers Hojjati et al. (2013: p. 285)
proved that listening to the Quran for only
15 minutes per day without using any
other skills or training could improve
students' memories. Because reading the
Koran relaxes the nerves of the brain and
makes it easier to absorb knowledge. As
we know, they are the tahfidz and hafidz
of the Quran who have good memory and
are intelligent in knowledge. Because the
Quran has miracles that Allah bestows on
helping mankind.
Memorizing Quran improved the
children's cognitive intelligence. The
improvement scores were up to 15.63%.
All children in the present research
achieved higher cognitive intelligence
(Slamet, 2019, p. 575). Glory be to Allah
to those who believe in the Qur'an so that
it is easier for those who study the Qur'an
P. ISSN:
E-ISSN: 2528-2476
so that they are given intelligence in
studying.
The mathematical code system of the
Quran to prove its miracles never end and
every day a new miracle is revealed. One
special feature of the Quran is that its
language is arranged in stylized patterns.
The literary excellence of the Quran
resides partly in its style which is so
perfect and lofty that the like of it none
could produce. A literary to the study of
the Quran begins with the awareness of its
reliance on stylistic language. (Ahmed,
2004)
Method
In this discussion the author uses the
qualitative research method, Qualitative
research reports are usually rich with
description, and may be a more
appropriate choice for some subjects from
the reader's perspective because "if you
want people to understand better ...
provide them with information in the form
in which they usually experience it ”
(Lincoln & Guba, 1985). The qualitative
research method that will be used is
interviews, the author will interview two
people about the miracles of the Quran that
they have experienced. Because as in the
previous explanation, the miracle that
Allah mentioned in the Quran is not only
5
 Al-Tadzkiyyah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam, Volume X, No. X, XXXX
20869118
for the world but in human life as well as
for human health and human cognitive
intelligence. The author will interview two
people from different backgrounds, the
first resource person is a student from a
formal school and the second resource is
from an Islamic school or what is
commonly called the Islamic Boarding
School.
Choosing two sources from different
backgrounds because the author wants to
get data based on habitual experiences
which of course there are differences, due
to social environmental factors and daily
experiences which are of course different,
Qualitative research is an interpretative
approach, which attempts to gain insight
into the specific meanings and behaviors
experienced in a certain social
phenomenon (Polgar & Thomas, 2000)
through the subjective experiences of the
participants.
The researcher builds abstracts, concepts,
hypotheses, or theories by asking such
questions as “why”, “how” and “in what
way?”. The data that can be generated
from unstructured and semi-structured
interviews can be rich and provide more
in-depth appreciation of a subject matter
than a questionnaire (Bell, 1999). The core
points the authors will ask are:
P. ISSN:
E-ISSN: 2528-2476
a. What miracles are mentioned in the
Quran that you know?
b. How can you be sure about the miracle
mentioned in the Quran?
c. What do you think is the miracle you
feel when you are near or are reading
or hearing the chanting of the holy
verses of the Quran?
d. If you agree that Quran is a miracle
that Allah bestowed on Muslims, how
do you give thanks for it?
Result
Based on the results of the search the
authors got, from various articles 80%
stated that the Al-quran is the most perfect
book of the previous books. As in Q.S Al-
An'am: 39 "There is nothing that we
neglect in this book" which means AL-
quran is the perfect book and the most
complete of the previous books.
As for the results of the interviews I
conducted with two sources from these
two backgrounds, the first source from
formal schools stated with the conclusion
that the miracle mentioned in the Quran
was real, and he was sure because there
was a lot of news that was conveyed. He
also felt calm when he was with the Al-
quran and the way he was grateful was by
worshiping. Meanwhile, the second
source's answer from the Islamic boarding
6
 Al-Tadzkiyyah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam, Volume X, No. X, XXXX P. ISSN:
20869118

school was that he believed that miracles
and whatever was mentioned in the Al-
qur'an were real because they were the
words of Allah SWT., And he felt restless
if one day he did not read or practice Al-
the qur'an because it is one of the ways he
is grateful for what Allah has given to life
in this mortal world.
Conclusion
Al-quran is the last book that Allah gave to
Prophet Muhammad SAW., As a miracle
for Rasulullah. Al-quran is a guideline for
Muslims, it tells many miracles in the
world as evidence of the power of Allah. It
is not a historical, architectural
scientific book, Al-quran is the holy book
E-ISSN: 2528-2476
that Muslims worship as a helper in the
end of life. We can feel and see the
miracles mentioned in the Qur'an not only
in nature but also in our soul and body.
Because the influence of the Quran is very
big if we study and practice it. Like the
results of the interview answers from two
different sources, the second speaker felt
more about how the different moods of the
soul were when he was close to the Al-
quran and how far away from the Al-
quran. It is said that in Q.S Al-Isra verse
82 "and we bring down from the Al-quran
something that makes an antidote and
mercy for those who believe and that Al-
or quran does not add to those who do wrong
other than harm.”
