The bible cannot really be appreciated unless read in Hebrew and Greek. And
not all Muslims are Arabs. What's your point?

I simply looked under "creation" in the index of _The Qur'an_ (trans. Ahmed
Ali, NY: QPBC, 1993 and found a rather substantial number of listings. I
looked up and read a half-dozen or so, and they dealt with the who, why, and
how of (human) existence. And in much the same manner as the bible. 

By the way, I would be interested in knowing what you think the bible gives
as the reason why God created the universe.
