The Torah
The Bible
The Quran
The Quran was written with alot of text from the Bible and the Torah
But the Muslims will say that the Quran is the Third Book to complete the Bible and the Torah
Now I ask this, If God is correct in all things, then why did He need to write the Quran to complete what was completed in the first place?
The Torah deals with the OT only

Of course!!! The Old Testament is the main book of Jews, Christians and Muslims. The Patriarchs are just the SAME, the Prophets are just the SAME, the one God is just the same, for all these 2 Faiths. The difference is that Christians believe Jesus was God's Son and recognize the Gospels as holy books too, whereas neither Jews nor Muslim do. In the Quran, the Prophet talks about all the Biblical Prophets including among them Jesus too. The Old Testament is like the 'root' from which the 'Gospels' on one side and the Quran on the other, stemmed.

The Torah and The Bible were written by Genuine Named Prophets directed by the Almighty God, The Father.
The Koran was put together by a self made prophet (Muhammad) who decided to distort the Bible to prove his prophethood and who was also possessed by Satan. Muhammad claims that The Bible has been tampered with. His claim is correct as Muhammad tampered it in his favour.
The connection is that Muhammad used the Bible which includes the 5 Books of Moses, distorted it and used it to prove his prophethood.

No links between the Bible and Q'uran. The bible was written by many prophets, and disciples of Jesus.
The Q'uran was given to Muhammed the prophet.
The only link between the three great religions Judaism, Christianity, and Islam is they all go bact to acknowledging the God of Abraham.

Christianity has its roots in Judaism, Islam is just basically a jealous brother wanting to be the "chosen one" See God promised Isaac to Abraham. Abraham's wife Sarah could not wait for God so she had a son sired by the "maid" Isaac finally came along and Sarah was jealous because the maid's son was the first born so she sent them away. The son is the "father" of the Arabs.

yes both the bible and the koran feature Jesus Christ. However in Koran he is the number 2 Prophet right after Mohammed. Then also most of the old testament is identical just differently laid out and translated. Then the Tora (book of the Jews) basically is the old Testament. I hope that helps.

Qur'an is the central religious text of Islam. Muslims believe the Qur'an, in its original Arabic, to be the literal word of God that was revealed to Muhammad over a period of twenty-three years until his death, and believe it to be God's final revelation to humanity.
The Qur'anic verses were originally memorised by Muhammad's companions as Muhammad spoke them, with some being written down by one or more companions on whatever was at hand, from stones to pieces of bark. Compilations of the Qur'an began under the Caliph Umar, but it was Uthman who decided upon a definitive copy and destroyed all other versions that had resulted from the differences of pronounciation of the words.
Please note that the Qur'an is not written based on ones opinion, but base on Allah words. If you read Qur'an, you would have know that it is impossible for an illiterate like Muhammad (PBUH) to write it on his own for Qur'an include everything and beyond what a man can think of.
As for bible, so-called holy book for Christian. I don't want to be rude, but it is just a man-made book. Long ago, they have changed a lot of God words in its original text just because they don't want to follow it.

The Qur'an is basically a "borrowing" of stories from the Jewish Bible, the Talmud, and the Christian Bible ... mixing and mashing them all together and reflecting the Arabic worldview.

The Quran borrowed heavily from the Bible; see their stories of Adam, Eve, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Ishmael, Hagar, etc...

No! They are two totally different beliefs. Islam would like people to think that the Bible supports it, but read your Bible and you will see they are not in the least similar.
