Is the Quran a creation or is it a creator?

Is the Qura’n a creation or is it a creator? Is it recent(existed when it was first sent down) “Muhdith”, or was is it “Qadeem” (existing before it was sent down)?There is a narration from Ahlulbayt pbu them that it is a creation, and in another narration it is a creator,and in another narration it is the words of Allah, not a creator neither was it a creation?!
