why there are many bibles . and muslim have only one holly koran?

Question

what the ...............

Answer 1

The Bible has the Old Testement and the New Testement.. Over time, the faith of Christianity has been changing.. the more the scripts are re-written and translated, the more the religion begins to change. Its weird... Y DOES IT CHANGE?? WHO IS CHANGING THE WORDS OF GOD?? In Islam, the Quraan had been written from the messages of Allah, It has always been the same since day one!! What is the need of changing Allah's words?? We believe in Him and ONLY HIM.. The faith is not fake, where people can re-write changing beliefs.. IT HAS A STRAIGHTFORWARD BELIEF.. COMPLETELY PURE AND PEACEFUL! Please... Get to know Islam before you start making assumptions.. Islam is the strongest faith here today! Having many bibles, written in different words, translated in different languages many times, can twist beliefs and can change the whole religion. Think about it!!

AND FOR YOUR INFO.. The Quraan is not written by man!! GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT PLEASE!!

Answer 2

What the .....what?

It is Holy...not holly...unless it is Christmas time.

The bible is translated in many languages and then in many versions, all saying the same thing but differently. Some are easier to read than others and isn't that the point?

I'm sure the Koran (or quran) has been translated in many languages too.

The Bible, King James version, you need a highschool education to read (you got that?) and another version is written so a person with a ninth grade education can understand it (you got that?)

Not a big deal.

They should make a nitwit version..you know, like "jsus sd 'pk up yer mat an go" so you could understand it!

Answer 3

The Bibles teach the same thing. The most recognized is the King James version. The Holly Qur'an, The Holy Qur'an, The Mighty Qur'an. All these were inspired by Muhammad. A business man of many dreams and talents. One being the ability to convince others that he had a direct line of communication to God. In his dreams he went thru 7 heavens, guided by Gabrial. This one cost him a lot of his followers.
He even negotiated with God to lessen the number of prayers from 50 a day to only 5 a day.

Answer 4

There is not even a single copy of the original Bible which was revealed in ancient hebrew thousands of years ago. King James burned all the bibles and he wrote his own version, taking out what he did not like and putting in his own stuff. The Holy Quran was revealed thousands of years ago and no matter how many Quran's you compare, each and every one is the same. Even the punctaution marks are the same. God has promised in the Holy Quran that it is his guarantee to keep the Book intact till the end of the world.
If the original text is not there, then where does the interpretaion and translation come from ? It come comes from te translation and interpretaion of other people's writing and hence the real message is lost.

Answer 5

It's not that there are so many Bibles, but that there are many translations of the Bible. For example, the King James Version was translated for King James at the time. The NIV is in more modern English for those of us who want things easier to read in the now language. The truth all remains the same but explained differently in the English language.
The Koran is newer and they haven't had the need to update the language used in it.

Answer 6

There aren't many Bibles, there are many translations of the Bible and the reason the koran has stayed same is because you have to read it in it's native writing (arabic) and no "infidels" could touch it. I almost got an earful onetime when I tried borrowing it from a islamic section of a library. Since I am christian, I am considered an infidel, never mind that the moslem's prophet Isa is who they recognise as Jesus Christ.

Answer 7

Probably the most salient reason that I ever heard is that if there were only one book (Bible) that was purported to have been actually touched and written by God directly, it would have been torn into little pieces and sold as religious icons a long time ago.
I believe that God intends us to search out how the Bible applies to our lives in a personal and practical way. Therefore He has gone to the pains of giving us all those versions, including texts in the original languages, to help us figure it out. They are all saying the same things in different ways and to decipher what they are saying requires another element - a personal relationship with God himself.

Answer 8

From Bukhari vol. VI, no. 509 we learn the following things:
a. Muhammad did not collect the fragments of the Qur'an and make them into a manuscript.
b. Some of the Companions of Muhammad were killed in battle and whatever surahs they had memorized died with them.
c. Abu Bakr asked Zaid to collect the fragments of the Qur'an and arrange them into a manuscript.
d. Zaid hesitated because the task was harder than sifting through an entire mountain.
e. The task was difficult because of:
1. the fragile nature of the fragments: palm leaves, stones, bones, etc.
2. the faulty memories of men (vol. VI, no. 527)
3. the false claims of men (vol. VI, no 523)
4. conflicting versions of the Qur'an (vol VI, no. 510, 514, 523)
5. contradictory orders of the surahs (vol VI, no. 515, 518)
6. God caused verses to be abrogated or forgotten. (vol. IV, nos. 57, 62, 69, 299, 393; VI, nos. 510, 511, 527,
7. Muhammad himself forgot and missed various parts of the Qur'an (vol. VI, no. 558, 562)

Even after the manuscript was put together, they found that they had missed some verses (Bukhari vol. IV, no. 62, no. 510).

They tried to burn all the other Qur'anic fragments and manuscripts. (VI, no. 510)

Uthman is usually credited for making the present text. (vol. I, no. 63; vol. IV, no. 709; vol. VI, nos. 507, 510)

It is clear that the text of the Qur'an was not perfect and that conflicts arose which made it necessary to make one uniform text. That Uthman tried to burn all the other Qur'ans is clear. Yet, there are thousands of variant readings and there remains controversies about verses such as the one about stoning which were omitted by mistake.

Answer 9

Are you telling me that all the Muslims have to share only one koran? There are many Holy Bibles because there is a wide diversity of Bible readers.

Answer 10

God Word has been perserved in all tongues. The koran is sure not Holy because it was not inspired of God but by a man. Psalms 12: 6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Psalms 12: 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
