Revelation

Beliefs & concepts

Disclosure of divine or hidden truth to humans. Not prophecy as foretelling alone, and not intuition as inner guess.

Islam

  • Revelation appears in Islam.

    The Qur’an presents itself as waḥy — revelation sent down to the Messenger. Islamic revelation speech, not a generic insight mood and not apocalypse as end-time spectacle alone.

    from M.A.S. Abdel Haleem (translation) · The Qur’an, 2004 (this translation); Arabic text 7th century CE
