I accept FlorenceArt's objections: 'creating' a language is a bit of an exaggeration. Harry is right: the Koran formalised and synthesised existing dialects into a single, more coherent linguistic form - just like Caxton and Dante did for English and Italian.
Legend has it that there were local merchants who were sceptical about Mohammed's thinking, but thought that the language was so beautiful, that they just had to agree.
It's still a poorly-worded question.
