Abstract

The Holy Qur'an is the soul of guidance and light of success and prosperity for humanity till the Day of Judgment. Thats why God Himself has taken the responsibility of protecting him till the Day of Judgment. Since this message of revelation is final and universal, special care has been taken in choosing the words and phrases which do not contradict its universality. Therefore, the claim that this book is sufficient for the guidance of humanity till the Day of Judgment, rationally requires that this book be easy to understand and free of problems and ambiguities so that everyone can easily find way of  guidance from it. However, study of the Holy Qur'an reveals that some people face problems in getting correct meaning of some of its verses. This article, discusses a few similar places, various types and causes. Moreover different methods of soling such problems. So that if someone is aware of these matters before studying the Qur'an, he can get optimum benefit for guidance from this great Book.
