In keeping with all Muslims the Bohras regard the Quran as the word of Allah as revealed to His Last Messenger, Prophet Mohammed al-Mustafa SA . It was revealed to him when he had turned forty40 years old in the cave of Hira on Jabal ul Noor, a mountain in Makkah Mukarramah, the city of the Kaaba in Arabia. The revelation began with the command to read– iqra – which was then repeated but by adding, Read in the name of your Lord, your Lord who created.
