Peace be upon you
The answers are quite simple really.
1. The reason why the letters look different is simply because of the font. For example, one might prefer to use Times New Roman as a font or one may use Rockwell as a font.
2. The grammar Arabs use today is not the same grammar the Arabs used in the 6th and 7th century. The modern Arabic grammar was established well after the prophet's death(pbuh). It was a man by the name of abu-al-Aswad al-Du'ali, who was followed by Al-Khalil ibn-Ahmad and then his pupil Sibawayh(orginally Persian), who came up with the foundations of modern Arabian grammar. They didn't have in mind to keep it consistent with the Qur'an, so naturally it is not.
3.http://www.irf.net/irf/faqonislam/index.htm, this has an answer about the third question. If I remember correctly, it was something along the lines of God(s.w.t.) quoting the devil. There are words of prophets(pbut) in the Qur'an, does that mean it is the word of Moses(pbuh), even though he is not alive?
4. Pick up any Qur'an, and there is the original version. Again, that site has a logical answer for this question. One may ask where is the original Bible simply because people don't have it in the original languages. Look at how many different versions and translations. A translation of the Qur'an is incredibly different from the original, you'd be surprised. In one translated verse( 79:30), the english version says the earth was spread, but in Arabic, it says it was made like an ostrich-egg, which is geo-spherical in shape, similar to earth. So imagine how different the original Bible is to the modern one people use. Israel tried to print their version of the Qur'an in attempt to destroy but it didn't work. You won't find a single Qur'an that differs from another in words.
Al-Haqiqa, means truth, peace and blessings upon you.

1.Im not sure of any arabic letter changes. But what important is the pronounciation and the meaning is still the same as during Muhammad(p) time.
2. Im not sure bout any grammar mistake, but again the important thing is the pronounciation. Every single living Muslim in the world pronounce it the same( maybe with a slightly different accent, as a German talking English )
3. Surah al-Jinn. Not all Jinn is non-believer or consider satan. Some of them is Muslim.
4. the first Qur'an that is written down and compiled into a book is during the Caliphate Uthman era.
One of the oldest Qur'an can be found in the pic below;

Though I am not a Muslim, I think the answers are: Yes, it was written in the previous Arab or some other (Hebrew or Latin) Alphabet. According to some Jewish traditions, a Jew wrote the Quran, for some reason or anther (Mohamed told him what to write). According to Islam (as far as I know), Mohamed wrote what Angel Gabriel told him at the same moment he wrote, and that is why it is not organized as a grammar.

Arabs recognise the Qur'an as the greatest piece of literature in their language. Your propaganda is pathetic.
