Al-Nisa’ 4: 80–2

We have sent you to man- kind, (O Muhammad), as a Messenger, and Allah is suffi- cient as a witness. (80) He who obeys the Messenger thereby obeys Allah; as for he who turns away, We have not sent you as a keeper over them!

(81) They say (in your presence): “We obey,” but when they leave your presence a party of them meets by night to plan against what you have said. Allah takes note of all their plots. So, let them alone, and put your trust in Allah. Allah is sufficient as a Guard- ian. (82) Do they not ponder about the Qur’an? Had it been from any other than Allah, they would surely have found in it much inconsistency.60

60 The Qur’an itself is a strong, persuasive testimony to its Divine origin. It is inconceivable that any human being should compose discourses on different subjects under different circumstances and on different occasions and the collection of those discourses should then grow into a coherent, homogeneous and integrated work, no component of which is discordant with the rest. It is also inconceivable that such a work would be permeated throughout with a uniform outlook and attitude, a work manifesting remarkable consistency in the mood and spirit of its Author, a work so perfect that it would never require any change or revision.
