الوحي
30 verses in 21 surahs · 2 subtopics
Revelation (wahy) here refers first to what Allah reveals to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, a man chosen from among his people: the Book, wisdom, and accounts of the unseen he had not witnessed. The verses also show that the word applies to the inspiration Allah gives to creatures who are not prophets, and even to non-human beings such as the bee.
