Why are there short Noble Chapters in the Holy Quran? The smallest is only 3 Noble Verses long! Are there missing Noble Verses?
Most certainly, the Divine Answer is with Allah Almighty. But there are some reasons why I think Allah Almighty made some of the Noble Surahs (Chapters) of the Holy Quran be very short; the shortest being 3 Noble Verses only. Let us consider the following points:
1- The Holy Quran is made of 114 Noble Chapters, which are all made of 6236 Noble Verses.
2- The short Noble Surahs begin from Noble Surah 105 and end at Noble Surah 114.
3- The Holy Quran was perfectly preserved. Not only It was perfectly preserved to the very Letter and even Vowel, but Its Complex Holy Text is Miraculous in both Text and Numerical Values. Ample examples were provided that thoroughly prove that the Holy Quran is indeed the Divine True Book from Allah Almighty. Please visit the following links for clear-cut proofs:
4- So we know for sure that the Holy Quran has no
missing Surahs or Verses.
5- Arabic is the language of the Holy Quran, and it is also the language of Prayer in Islam. Read the following article for ample more details:
6- Islam came to be spread to all of mankind.
This article thoroughly demonstrates this:
7- Since Arabic is the mandatory language for Praying in Islam, and Praying in Islam requires reading some of the Holy Quran in Arabic, then I believe that Allah Almighty put those very short Noble Chapters to make it very easy for the non-Arabic speaking Muslims to Pray to Allah Almighty properly in Arabic.
8- Also, these short Noble Surahs make it easier for the Arabic-speaking Muslims to Pray regularly and properly as well.
9- Not only that, but they're also perfect for the Muslim children to learn reading the Holy Quran, and to start memorizing the Holy Quran, or at least some of the Holy Quran. And indeed, in all of the Islamic schools that teach the Holy Quran in the world, these short Noble Surahs are the most common ones that are taught to our little Muslim children to memorize.
10- Also, many Muslims scholars claim that these Noble Surahs summarize the entire Holy Quran. Think of them as the shorter version of the Holy Quran. Now, while they don't entirely summarize the entire Holy Quran, but they do indeed cover the basics of Islam in them, which would make them ideal for all starters from both adults and children to start learning the Holy Quran from.
Now, there are other reasons why these Noble Surahs are in the Holy Quran, such as them playing an important role in the Numerical Miracles in the Holy Quran. See the above links. But the above points that I mentioned should be sufficient enough for all to understand the importance of these short Noble Surahs.
