The Al-quaran could also be corrupted, to suit the needs of people that live in arab. For example do god permitted man to marry 4 wife. Islam may denied Jesus christ is son of god because he is born among the jews and not among them.

Genesis 6-9:17 in the Bible.
Sura 71: Nuh (Noah).
In Al Quaran
God tells Nuh that no more people will now believe than have already believed and chose to follow him. Nuh appeals to God to get rid of all unbelievers, as he fears that the believers may be corrupted or harmed by them. God instructs Nuh to build an ark for a flood that he shall shortly be sending on the earth.
In Holy Bible
Noah, his family and all the animals come out of the ark and onto dry land. Noah then sacrifices some animals and birds as burnt offering to God. This pleases God and he vows never to destroy mankind by water again. He tells Noah to 'be fruitful and multiply'. God then makes a rainbow as a lasting symbol of his covenant with man. Noah lives 950 years and then he dies.
The holy bible is more towards love, mercy and forgiveness, the Al-Quaran seems more towards punishment.

Instead of expressing my own words, I tried to find the answers of your questions online. As far as the authentification of Al_Quran is concerned, I found some interesting number facts...like number 19 in Quran...look at yourself by clicking link #1. Then, comparisen of Quran with Modern Science..click link #2. When I was trying to find about bible, I found a site about differences between different bibles.see link #3 but I couldn't find any link that could show differneces between different translation of Al-Quran..... No Comments..

No, God said in the Qur'an that He would protect the Qur'an from any corruption. And if you've looked into the deeper meaning of the Qur'an, you would realize that the meaning is timeless. So the thing about Arab's being jealous of Jewish ppl:wrong. Jewish ppl were upset that the new and last prophet (Muhammad) was born among arabs. Sure there are things that apply to the Arabs back then, but it's kind of metaphorical (is that a word?haha) for ppl today. I'm not putting down the Bible or Torah or anything, because there are similarities in the Qur'an with those books. I'm just saying, the whole reason Islam was started was because, ppl were starting to change God's message (Bible n Torah) so He just sent another messenger (Muhammad) and message (Qur'an) to guide the ppl back to the right path.
And as for the 4 wives thing: What the heck does that have to do with Arab ppl. There are ppl in the world that have 2 wives. So? As long as they provide equally for both wives, there's not a problem. Meaning, if the husband gets new furniture for one wife, he's obliged to get new furniture for his other wife(ves).
Need I say more?

No you got it all wrong. It's not Jews or Arabs. God can't have a son. He is One. He has no partner, nor He begets or is begotten. Jesus's status in Islam is extremely high. We believe Jesus will come down near the end times to destroy the cross (Christianity).
There are early texts of the Koran that have been found during the rule of Usman bin Affan. The text is similar to today's Koran. Proof. By corrupted, we mean that the bible is altered by man. Even Christian scholars accept the fact that men wrote the Bible, the authors are unknown and it was written after Jesus's death.
Bruce (below): The Koran is translated, but each translation needs to be written with the Arabic text. If you buy a translation, it still has the Arabic text in it.

Why can't Allah (swt) allow polygamy? Why does the Quran need to be corrupted to allow polygamy? Infact, allowing polygamy is the proof that it is uncorrupted. Allah (swt) created human beings and He is fully aware that man is polygamous in nature. Most men from other religions practise polygamy without any legal sanction, that is why there are so many brothels, mistresses etc around the world. Allah (swt) wants to allow a man to legalize a relationship and give all the rights and status of a wife to a woman he might be interested in. Which religion recognizes the need to solve the problem of women except Islam? A woman in Islam cannot be touched by any man except that he has legal sanction to do it. Allah (swt) is protecting the women's rights.There are polygamous people all over the world and of different religions. They use women without any legal sanction or without giving them any rights. In Islam one wife should have the same treatment as another wife. Otherwise the husband is liable to be severely punished. Which believing Muslim would like to take the risk? Islam is the only religion that has allowed polygamy with limits that is maximum of four. No other religion has in its scriptures any such limits. Islam is the only religion that encourages you to marry one.
This is enough proof that Allah (swt) understands the needs of His creations and that the Quran is the uncorrupted truth.

How can anyone believe a book written by men. We have seen all through history people serving their own agendas by stating THIS is the true and right way when they were just people too. Who's to say all of the supposed Holy books are the gospel and not just some collaboration of fiction to serve the purposes of unholy men. I am not an Athiest I just don't believe something because someone says I have to.
I have questions and unless we master time travel there are no definitive answers.

Muslims you can not have it each approaches:both the Bible is corrupt or it is not. I was once amazed to discover the Quran quoting the Blessed Virgin Mary as aspect of the Trinity.Surely if there was once Divine proposal then the writer of your holy ebook might recognise who(Christians consider) the contributors of the Holy Trinity are.

If a person were to take the stance that Islam and Christianity both have their roots in serving the God of Abraham then both Islam and Christianity hold infallible truths. This is so because they both come from one all power being. It is the people and not the religion religion that are wayward.

if you bring every copy of the quran all over the world and match them together you will find them amazingly fitting with each other..if you match them with the very firs copy of the quran (found in a museum in Saudi Arabia) you will find it amazingly exactly the same..
Allah promised Muslims that he will protect his book from corrupting..
have you ever heard of numerical miracles of the quran..it is done by counting the numbers of words and letters and you get incredibly the same numbers (e.g the number of times women and men is mentioned in the quran is 23 i think..the same number etc...) and if the quran was corrupted then these miracles would never exist..if you only change one letter every thing will be mixed up and spoiled..

The Bible has Gods Holy Spirit to testify and teach, the koran has nothing.
