Which ancient religious literature is the only one where the Arabic used for its revelation—along with its dialect—is still spoken today?
The Quran is the only ancient religious literature where the Arabic used for its revelation—along with its dialect—is still spoken today. The Quran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in the 7th century in the Arabic language, and it is still considered as the original language of the Quran. The Quran's language is considered as unique and considered as a literary masterpiece, and it is considered as the standard for the Arabic language. It is the only religious text that has been preserved in its original language and script, and it is still widely spoken and understood by millions of people around the world. The Quran is also considered as the foundation of the Arabic language, and it has influenced the development of the language and its grammar throughout the centuries.
Who is the Qur'anic "Haafiz" in the first place?
A "Haafiz" (also spelled Hafiz or Hafez) is a person who has memorized the entire Quran. The term "Haafiz" is derived from the Arabic word "hifz" which means "to protect" or "to preserve". A Haafiz is someone who has committed the Quran to memory and is able to recite it from memory. The Quran is considered as the foundation of Islamic faith and practice and memorizing it is considered as a great achievement and a way to gain closeness to God.
Becoming a Haafiz is a long process that usually takes years of hard work and dedication. It starts with learning the rules of Quranic recitation and then memorizing short surahs and gradually moving on to memorizing longer surahs and eventually the entire Quran. The Haafiz are considered as the custodians of the Quran and they play an important role in preserving the Quran and passing it on to future generations.
It's important to note that the Qur'anic Haafiz in the first place is considered to be the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as according to Islamic tradition, he is the one who received the Quran directly from Allah and memorized it completely.
How many Huffaz were present at the time of the Prophet Muhammad's (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) passing?
According to Islamic tradition, at the time of the Prophet Muhammad's passing, there were a significant number of Huffaz (people who have memorized the entire Quran) present. Some sources state that there were around 1,400 Huffaz at the time of the Prophet's passing, while others state that there were around 1,250 Huffaz. These Huffaz were considered as the custodians of the Quran, and they played an important role in preserving and transmitting the Quran to future generations.
It's worth noting that, the numbers of Huffaz present at the time of the Prophet passing may vary depending on the source and interpretation, but it's agreed that the number of Huffaz was significant, and they played an important role in preserving and passing on the Quran to future generations.
How many verses in the Qur'an are devoted to prostation (sajda)?
In the Qur'an, there are 15 verses (also known as "ayahs") that are specifically devoted to prostration or sajda. These verses are found in the following surahs (chapters) of the Quran:
-Surah Al-Hajj: verse 77
-Surah Al-Fussilat: verse 37
-Surah Al-Najm: verse 62

It's worth noting that these verses are not the only verses in the Quran that talk about Sajda, there are also other verses that call for humility, respect, and submission to God.

The first Surah (chapter) of the Quran that contains a verse referring to Sajda (prostration) is Surah Al-A'raf, verse 206. The verse is:
