15:1 Al-Kitâb الْكِتَابِ indicates here not only a book or written document, but also a decree, ordinance, prescription, or command (Tâj, Lisân, Lane; cf. 2:183; 15:4; 52:2-3). Note that the definite article al precedes the word Kitâb. As in 2:2 this article connotes as sense of perfection and wholeness. Qur’ânقُرْآنٍ is derived from qara’ قرأء, meaning something to be read and conveyed. The verse contains a prophetic suggestion in the words al-Kitâb and Qur’ân that this Book will continue to be written, read and conveyed (cf. 2:1; 27:2).
