In regard to your question concerning the authenticity of
the Qur'an. I have referred it to the Guardian for his opinion. He thinks that
the Qur'an is, notwithstanding the opinion of certain historians, quite
authentic, and that consequently it should be considered in its entirety by
every faithful and loyal believer as the sacred scriptures of the Muhammadan
Revelation.

Effendi to an individual believer; compilation: ‘Holy Scriptures of previous
Dispensations’, prepared by the Research Department of the Universal House of
Justice and accompanied a letter dated January 1, 1981 written on behalf of the
