Abstract:
\nThis paper examines the archeological remains and historical events that took place in the ancient Near
\nEast and compares them with the archaeological facts mentioned in the Holy Qur\u2019an. One of the key
\nfeatures of the Holy Qur\u2019an is that it contains explicit data about groups of people from the past and events in
\ntheir lives.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It gives the reader an idea of these, the significance of their place of residence and stories about the
\nprophets that were sent to them. To help remove doubts about the historical reliability of the Qur\u2019an, this paper
\nhas been divided into three parts: The first part deals with the uncovered cities mentioned in the Qur\u2019an. These
\ninclude the city of Babel (Babylon) in Iraq, \u201csuch things as came down at Babylon to the angels Harut and
\nMarut\u201d(Surah Al Baqarah 2: 102), the city of Iram (Ubar) in Yemen \u201cHave you not seen how your Lord dealt
\nwith\u2018Ad? The residents of Iram, the city of lofty pillars, the like of which had never been built in other cities\u201d
\n(Surah Al Fajr 89: 6-8), the city of Saba in Yemen, \u201cFor the people of Saba (Sheba, presently a town in Yemen) there was indeed a sign in their dwelling place: two gardens – one to the right and one to the left.\u201d (Saba 34: 15)
\nand various other cities mentioned in the Ebla Tablets such as the city of Sodom and Gomorrah where the
\npeople of Lot lived. The second part deals with prophets mentioned in the Quran such as Noah, Abraham,
\nIshmael and Moses. Noah identified in the Akkadian Tablets under the name of Ut-napishtim, which is considered to be the Babylonian Noah and it is mentioned in the tablet number eleven of the Epic of Gilgamesh
\n(the flood story) and discovered among the many tablets from the Ashurbanipal\u2019s library in the Nineveh and
\nkept know in British Museum in London. Other prophets\u2019 names appeared in the Ebla Tablets such as Abraham
\nand Ishmael. Moses\u2019 name appeared in the Egyptian Hieroglyph Inscription. The third part compares the many
\nstories revealed in the Qur\u2019an with that of Archaeological discoveries. These include, Moses\u2019 Pharaoh\u2019s and mummif
\nication \u201cThis day shall we save in thee in the body, that thou mayest be a sign to those who come after
\nthee!\u201d(Yunus 10: 92), the story of Sargon of Akkad and Moses that shows much similarity to the tablet
\ndiscovered from the New Assyrian period around 911-612 BC, the story of Queen Saba and Solomon in the
\nbeginning of the first Millennium BC and the story of the people of the Kahf (the cave of the seven sleepers),
\nuncovered near Amman in Jordan in 1963 CE, or in Yemen and Turkey. As can be seen, the information
\nprovided by the Qur\u2019an about events of the past is in total agreement with historical information; this is another
\nevidence of the fact that the Qur\u2019an is the Word of Allah<\/p>\n
