but a human could make a book covering thsoe topics. im asking in the context of the qur'anic challene to produce a surah like the qur'an

They could make a book with all those topics but we would have to evaluate if the laws were as good. The literary and linguistic uniqueness of the words of the Quran is something non Arab speakers would not understand, so I do not know how you could display this to them.

One of the problems with our dawa is that most of our Islam is theoretical...we are not living it, there is nowhere we can point to and say there is Islam in its full glory..look at its beauty and sanity. The salfus salih were living it...where they went their actions were dawa....they did not have to explain to others why Islam was good, the others just saw the Muslims (and their sharp swords ) and embraced Islam.

Our Islam is in the masjid, or at home, it is not in our business and our trade or government. We are secularised and it looks as if most of us are content with this...no one has the means or the way to show us how we must strive to bring about the full Islam in our lives, most of us do not even know what this Islam is like, it might be a mix of democracy and capitalism some think, and I am not sure if people even want all of it if they know what it is.
