Due to diacritical marks not being included in the original Qur'an and their use being so complex, and also because Muhammad allowed for more than one reading of each word, it is difficult to determine the original meaning of the text. Through the abundance of opportunities to make mistakes it is likely true that the Qur'an has been altered or at least its specific form forgotten and that the version we have with us today is not Allah’s word to the letter, as many claim. | Due to diacritical marks not being included in the original Qur'an and their use being so complex, and also because Muhammad allowed for more than one reading of each word, it is difficult to determine the original meaning of the text.
