Quran Majid has borne testimony to their condition in the following verse: IT IS HE WHO HAS SENT AMONGST THE UNLETTERED AN APOSTLE FROM AMONG THEMSELVES, TO REHEARSE TO THEM HIS SIGNS, TO SANCTIFY THEM, AND TO INSTRUCT THEM IN SCRIPTURE AND WISDOM, - ALTHOUGH THEY HAD BEEN, BEFORE, IN MANIFEST ERROR; (Chapter 62; verse 2)
Qur'an Majid inasadikisha hali yao kwenye Aya ifuatayo: "Yeye ndiye aliyempeleka Mtume kwenye watu wasiojua kusoma, awa-somee Aya zake na awatakase na awafunze Kitabu na Hekima, ijapokua kabla ya haya walikuwa katika upotofu ulio dhahiri" (Qur'an 62:2).
