The world is created for the sake of test. The first test is the test of knowledge and understanding.
The most necessary fundamentals of religion are very simple. Everyone can understand them whether they are about faith or worship rituals or some other good deed.
However, since religion addresses thought and every sphere of life, things get complex, for which we need special knowledge to resolve them, like any other discipline of knowledge where experts make things clear to us and we decide whose opinion to choose.

But still only a person addresses us and tells us all the things, which then includes his own philosophy, and man as a human being adds some things with his intellect to the whole case by which he proves the validity of his religious case. Or sometimes he writes whole books to strengthen the religious beliefs which he himself writes according to what he thinks is right.

Right. This is the test to reach the right conclusion according to one’s capacity .

But then this could not be considered as the word of God, this is also just a man saying and man like there are other sciences in the world in which he makes mistakes and we remain satisfied because we know that how human works. But here the case should be different because the message of God should not be modified. A kind of modification I mean why God need a person to clarify different things about his message not by himself.

The message of God is self sufficient in explaining the basic facts of Iman. Then comes the technicalities. Here it works like a science. God involves man in His revealing His message to people. This is a an honour.
Secondly the scheme of the test is comprehensive. It includes the test of one’s sincerity in the face of different temptations while understanding and interpreting the message of God.
This quality doesn’t not disqualify it to be divine. It divinity is proven with the facts we see the experience. Its flawlessness, its challenges, its predictions which came from a person who had no education, all prove it to be divine.

It seems to be Quran that is only for those people whom questions it’s divinity. How a layman can see it as a divine book. Because a general observation indicates us that a lot of people even don’t bother to think that why it is a divine book but still they found it really a guidance book or a divine one moreover if it’s the fault of people still a layman will not bother so much to get guidance or to make sure Quran as divine book.

@Irfan76 In the first paragraph of your answer you were saying that in terms of technicality understanding Quran works like a science. But I think Science is something that we know we can learn it through observation and experiment but again is Divine knowledge also work in same way?If it is from God it should be crystal clear and we should not see it as a worldly knowledge. Right?

A layman can see that there is nothing in the Qur’an which goes against his intellect and satisfied his curiosity of life and it purpose.
The prophecies of the Qur’an and the prophets cam true in the history and in our times.
If he bothers to confirm further he has to learn how Qur’an is flawless, no evolution of thoughts, consistent in its system for laws, came from a man of having no background of knowledge.
By science I do not mean natural science but a disciple which has it premises and the details built upon these premises. It is a flawless structure.

Does satisfying one’s curiosity and not going against intellect is the criteria of truth? and we know that almost every philosophy that exist in the world offers us a purpose but how come one know that which philosophy is true.
Prophecy is something that seems to be difficult to believe. It seems unlikely that the Creator of this world ever contacted anyone. I think it is upto the individual or society to believe. Because Prophecy is not something like scientific fact.
Now a man claims prophethood, I am not saying what his motives are. Fear of death may be the originator of all these things. He may on his part want or think what is described in this book. How can we present it as a truth!
-
No philosophy could ever offer a satisfying solution to the problem of existence. Therefore, in the end, it gave up and declared that it could not find the purpose of life and why it exists. So, they offer no purpose.
On the other hand, religion offers a complete scheme of life, right from its beginning to the end. it is logical and satisfying. One may believe it to be true or not, but cannot question it being logical to every question of existence.
it is more likely that the creator should contact humanity to let them know why they were created.
True prophecies are a certain way to increase our belief in the informant. A scientific theory can only be believed if it can tell true prophecies.
Prophethood is a long tradition, that starts in the known history from Abraham, recorded by the Bible, and the same tradition continued to reach the prophet Muhammad. The book he brought is flawless, with no evolution of thought, and its prophecies came true, still, it is true in the national life of Bani Israel and Bani Ishmael.
The national life of Bani Israel always stays on the pattern enunciated in the Bible and the Quran and came from a person who had not background of knowledge.
This all is enough to make one believe that God contacted humanity and this line of prophets is true.

There is more than one way to confirm that the Quran is a book from God. Even a layman can know it. I hinted it in the message above. These proofs belong to historical truth predicted by the Quran. When a layman bothers to judge the divinity of the Quran he should get ready to learn some facts to make an educated decision.
