This category was first introduced by Jahiz (death: AH 255) in response to the question of how the only book as a miracle, namely Quran, is allocated to Muhammad (PBUH) among all the prophets. Answering this question, Muslim scholars have followed three different approaches throughout history: 1. Some considered it ethnically and claimed that the superiority of Arabs intellect among whom Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) appeared, was the reason why Quran was revealed to him.2. Others referred to the religion of audiences and believed that the intellectual superiority of the Islamic Ummah over Jews and Christians was the main reason.
3. The rest, considering the mankind as a whole, believed that the growth of human intelligence in the era of Prophet Muhammads (PBUH) was the reason.
