Through the Qur'an, He brings them out of the darkness into light. He has made it a Book that is straight, neither distorted nor confusion therein. It clearly guides to a straight path, plain and manifest, giving a warning to the disbelievers and good news to the believers. This is why Allah says;

وَلَمْ يَجْعَل لَّهُ عِوَجَا

and has not placed therein any crookedness.
