I. INTRODUCTION

The Glorious Qur’an being full of sciences, which deals with direct, History, understanding and implementation of its teachings, asbab al-Nuzul, the knowledge of abrogator and abrogated, (al-Nasikhwa al-Mansukh) ‘Ilm al-Qira’at, ‘lIm al-Tafsir ‘Ijaz al-Qur’an (Miraculousness of the Qur’an), al-Wahy (revelation) and numerous issues discussed in the Glorious Qur’an. It is therefore, pertinent to say that the Glorious Qur’an comprises everything as Allah stated in the Glorious Qur’an where He says:

And there is no creature on (or within) the earth or bird that flies with its wings except (that they are) communities like you. We have not neglected in the register (al-Lawh al-Mahfuth) or (Qur’an) a thing then unto their Lord they will be gathered (Qur’an, 6:38).
