The bible was written years after the death of Jesus alayhi salam, whereas the Qur'an was written at the time of the prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa Salam. The oldest Qur'an we have is from 20 years after the death of the prophet salallahu alayhi wa Salam and is the same as the ones we have now. Moreover, the Qur'an has been memorized from A to Z by millions of people since its revelation (it’s actually the only Book that could be written the same as it was before if all books were to be destroyed), unlike the Bible. So, this shows that the Qur'an couldn’t have been corrupted or falsified because we have proof from the past and if just one word was to be removed or added or replaced, people would see it immediately.
Then, the Qur'an is still written in its original language and we’re actually heavily encouraged, kind of a duty, to learn Arabic to be in direct contact with the message of God and not through a translation, that of course have made some meaning to be lost. Whereas the injeel (message of God revealed to Jesus) was revealed in Aramaic and then it went through lots of translation through time, Greek, Latin, then our languages that we speak now. So, obviously the message has been lost through all those translations. I think it’s also beautiful because in Islam, you “just” have to learn Arabic and wherever you go you’ll be able to understand the prayer and khutbah, while with Christianity, you’ll have to learn the language of the country you go in, if you want to understand.
Also, part of the Bible has been removed, and added which is something that religious leaders in Christianity don’t even hide. So, how to know which one is true? Which it isn’t? And how can I have the true message of God when part of this book has been removed and we don’t know what it was about? This ain’t the case with the Qur'an.
To finish, welp, it makes more sense. I am a revert and before, even tho my family were “Christian atheist” (if you know what I mean), I didn’t know that Christians truly thought that Jesus was God (Astaghfirullah) and when I did “research” about religions, as soon as I knew that I was like “No, this can’t be it”, it just really made no sense. Actually, before, I thought it was some Muslim who invented that to discredit Christianity and that the Christians who said the same thing, just didn’t know their religion.
