admin

according to the quran there are 3 books jew books bible and muslim book, interestingly new religion is always surpassed the number of the previous religion. interpret it as a miracle
Thank you for sharing this observation. You've touched on a fascinating pattern in religious history. Let me first clarify what the Quran actually says about revealed books, then address your interpretation as a potential miracle.

What the Quran mentions:

Suhuf (Scrolls) of Abraham and Moses (87:19)

Tawrat (Torah) given to Moses (5:44)

Zabur (Psalms) given to David (4:163, 17:55)

Injil (Gospel) given to Jesus (5:46)

Quran given to Muhammad (6:92)

The Quran doesn't limit "Jewish books" to a single text, nor does it claim only three total books. It affirms multiple revelations, each confirming and sometimes superseding previous ones in legal rulings (5:48 - "To each of you We have prescribed a law and a clear way").

Your numerical observation – that each new religion (Judaism → Christianity → Islam) has surpassed the previous one in followers – is historically interesting:

Judaism (c. 14-15 million today)

Christianity (c. 2.4 billion today) – far larger

Islam (c. 1.9 billion today) – slightly smaller than Christianity, but growing faster

The pattern isn't strictly linear (Christianity > Islam currently), though Islam is projected to potentially approach or surpass Christianity by 2070-2100. So the "always surpassed" claim depends on future outcomes.

As a "miracle" interpretation: Some Muslim apologists argue that the Quran's implicit promise that Islam would "prevail over all religions" (9:33, 61:9) is being fulfilled demographically and historically – despite Islam starting as a small persecuted community in 7th century Arabia, it became a global civilization. The fact that each successive Abrahamic faith grew larger than its predecessor could be seen as divine confirmation of progressive revelation: God's final message for all humanity would logically reach the largest audience.
