Some readers of the Holy Qur'an ask: Why the Last Message of Allah (Al-Qur'an al-Karim) was revealed in the Arabic language?

The Holy Qur’an was revealed in the Arabic language because no other language was provided with the atmosphere and conditions to grow and develop which were ordained for the Arabic Language, enabling it to become the vehicle of the Last Message of Allah. The Arabic language is known to be the mother of the Semitic languages. The history of the Semitic languages goes back to Shem (Sam: the eldest son of the Prophet Noah A.S.). Shem and his descendants spoke Semitic languages which include Arabic and Hebrew languages. The Semitic or Abrahamic Religions include: Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

The amazing history of the Arabian Peninsula reveals that centuries before the advent of Islam, the Poets, Orators, Business men and Leaders of the Arabian tribes from the whole Arabian peninsula and the delegations from Europe, Africa, India, Far East and other nations used to gather in the Cosmopolitan City of Makkah in four sacred months for business expositions and display. The Arab tribes also held literary festivals where poets presented their poetry. The best piece of poetry/literature, presented in these festivals, as a mark of respect and recognition, was placed in Ka‘bah (House of Allah) hanging in it so that all Pilgrims may know about the best Ode. All such Odes were called:(Hanging Odes), out of which at least 14 are extant and seven of them: are still included in courses of reading in religious institutions of the Muslim world, in order to teach the language which ultimately became vehicle for the Last Message of Allah. In addition to these odes volumes of Arabic poetry and highly cherished pieces of Arabic prose from pre-Islamic era are also extant.
