Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says (Translation): Then We gave the Book (the Qur'an) as inheritance to those of our servants whom We have chosen. (Fatir 35: 32)
Note: After Rasullullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam this Ummah has inherited this book. Meaning thereby, that every Muslim of this Ummah has been distinguished by a unique honour which was previously only bestowed to Prophets. However, along with the honour it becomes the responsibility of each individual of the Ummah to convey the message of the Qur'an to the rest of mankind.
