Qur’anic voweling makes it unique for learning Arabic
Evidence
‘You can no more master Arabic without the Qur’an than Hebrew without the Bible,’ as he remarked to Casaubon. (One great advantage of learning Arabic from the Qur’an was and is the fact that it is the only text that is normally vowelled. Arabic manuscripts of other works not only omitted the vowels, but were often slapdash about adding the diacritical marks that distinguished some consonants from others.) — Robert Irwin, For Lust of Knowing, 142
