There is only ONE sole authentic holy Quran. ONLY the Arabic text of the holy Quran can be considered and called the holy Quran. The translations of the holy Quran, i.e. Yusuf Ali, Pickthall, Shakir, etc. are well, only translations of the holy Quran. They cannot be compared with the original Arabic text of the holy Quran of which the holy Quran was originally revealed in and of which Muslims believe to be literal words of God.
Bible however has many versions. The famous being the King James Version (KJV) and the Revised Standard Version (RSV).
God knows best.
Peace and Love.

how many languages has it been translated into? Thats how diffderent versions get produced, simply because words mean different thingsin different languages. The bible still says basically the same thing. However. There are at least 4 versions of the Quran around today, whether muslims want to admit it or not. Its a historical FACT.

The Quran may have one version but over 100 different interpretations....so what the difference?
The Different versions of the bible do not change it's meaning. The meaning of the Quran can be changed according to the Whims of the Imam

I think that generally there is only one accepted version of the Quran, versus the Orthodox Bible, the Catholic Bible, the Gnostic Bible, the Essene New Testament, the Protestant Bible, etc.

There is no HOLY Quaran.
I think you refer to the UNHOLY Quaran!
There are many versions of the Quara'n;
Arabic + English versions by Yusuf Ali, Shakia, and Pictall.
That is just 4, for a start!
There are also a few hidden Quaran that did not get destroyed during the days Mo's Uncle called in all of them + the fragments!
There ara a number of Bibles and quite a few PARAPHRASE bibles.

I don't know. I do know that the Bible is the best selling book of all time, but sadly spends the most time collecting dust on many peoples shelves. God bless :-)

1 version Qur'an
Allah says
[4:82] Do they not consider the Quran (with care)? had it been from other than God, they would surely have found therein much discrepancy.
