Q
Explain two ways in which the authority of the Qur’an influences Muslims today
(4 marks)
A
It teaches them how to live a good life and so Muslims will abide by this. This includes giving money to charity and helping those in need. By doing this they will hope to go to heaven as it mentions in the Qur’an (2 marks)
Another way is that Muslims believe that the Qur’an is the actual word of Allah meaning that only this book and not previous ones have absolute authority and so Muslims will follow the teachings within it like praying to God and completing the Five Pillars (2 marks)
