The Noble Qur’an for the Muslims is the book of Divine guidance and direction for mankind revealed by Allah (God) to His final messenger Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). It is regarded as the finest work in classical Arabic literature still in its original form (without any alterations) since it was revealed 1400+ years ago! The Qur’an is divided into chapters (surah) which contains verses (ayah).

Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?
Surah At-Tawbah (chapter 9)
At-Tauba’ or ‘repentance’, exposes the true qualities of the hypocrites and threatens them with a woeful doom. It can be likened to a stern warning made in the strongest terms. Hence, an opening, which stresses divine mercy and compassion, does not seem particularly fitting to the subject matter of the Surah. Therefore, Allah has not started with the phrase you have mentioned which begins every other Surah in the Qur’an. To recite this phrase at its beginning is forbidden because it constitutes an addition to the Qur’an which is not part of it.

Assalamualaikum brother 🙂
It is a wonerful post 🙂 and thank you for sharing such an idea, may Allah increase your reward exponentially 🙂 , just had to mention about question number 60 that where does the Qur’an refer alcohol as the root cause? The reason of mentioning this point was merely sharing with everyone that, if we aren’t certain of something being mentioned or referred in Qur’an we should refrain from making any of the opinions. I am not advocating alcohol at all, indeed it is haram but just had to share and if i haven’t encountered such instance i would request you to mention the reference where in the Qur’an is mentioned the root cause of evil is alcohol.
Jazak’Allahu khayran.
