The Holy Quran

Quran

The Holy Quran
The Holy Quran, regarded as the divine revelation in Islam, is the sacred scripture believed by Muslims to be the literal word of God (Allah) revealed to Prophet Muhammad through the Angel Gabriel over 23 years. Comprising 114 chapters (Surahs) and 6,348 verses (Ayahs), it serves as the ultimate guide for faith, ethics, law, and spiritual growth. The Quran’s literary excellence in Arabic remains unparalleled, with its rhythmic prose and profound depth considered a miracle (I'jaz) that transcends human capability.
Organized thematically rather than chronologically, it addresses diverse subjects: monotheism, moral conduct, historical accounts of prophets, social justice, and prophecies. Key teachings emphasize compassion, justice, and the accountability of human actions in the afterlife. Muslims worldwide recite and memorize its verses daily, preserving its text unchanged since the 7th century.
The Quran’s compilation began during Prophet Muhammad’s lifetime, with written fragments later standardized under Caliph Uthman to eliminate discrepancies. Its preservation combines oral tradition (Hifz) and meticulous manuscript transcription, ensuring textual integrity—a phenomenon Muslims attribute to divine protection.
Beyond religious practice, the Quran has shaped Islamic art, literature, and legal systems, influencing civilizations globally. It remains a cornerstone of Islamic identity, uniting over a billion believers in worship and ethical living. As Allah declares in the Quran: “We have revealed the Reminder, and We will surely preserve it” (15:9).

John Stamper

At what point can a Christian teacher no longer be part of a public education system that requires them to participate in teaching destructive ideologies and advancing immoral agendas on young children? 
 
John Stamper reached that tipping point as a teacher in the Chicago Public School System and made the decision to quit his job and pull back the curtain on what’s happening in public schools today. 
 
You’ve seen the stories on the news – our national education system has an agenda, being implemented under the guise of fairness, equality, and racial justice to children. However, this book will open your eyes to: 
 
The indoctrination process through mandatory teacher training that implements these radical ideologies in schools without parental knowledgeThe danger and division created by critical race theory and gender theory being promoted in public schoolsHow Marxist, socialist, and communist ideologies are dominating public schools, and how you move forward with homeschooling your children 
 
For generations, teachers have been excellent role models, investing their time and energy into fundamental lessons. However, today a growing number think they, the school board, and their school system know more than parents about what should be taught to students. You need to know what is going on in your child’s school and be prepared for the conflict of values that you may have to face. 
 
You have options.

In this life-changing book, Jimmy Evans shows you how to completely remove and resolve every negative event from your past that is compromising your present and keeping you from your God-given destiny. With inspired vulnerability and searing honesty, he helps you forgive others (and yourself) and discover true inner peace and hope for the future.
