Quran Miracles

AsSalaam Alkuim,

At the time the Qur'an was revealed, Arabic writings and poetry were confined to contemporary Arab environment, culture, customs and history. Thus, the majority of Arabic literature contained descriptions or praise of such topics as camels, horses, women, tribal chiefs, tribal wars, tribal historians, etc. The Qur'an, however, does not describe anything that refects the Arab enviroment, culture, history, etc. Moreover, the Qur'an uses it own specific words and terms to describe things or events. Much of the terminology was unknown to contemporary writers. For example, the Qur'an uses the term 'surah' for 'chapter' and 'ayah' for 'verse', whereas early Abrabic books used the word 'qaseedah' for 'chapter' and 'bayt' for 'verse'.
