Muslims believe that God/Allah created the universe. How? i am not sure, so I cannot confirm or deny the big bang theory. We do know that the earth was created in several stages and we do confirm that the heavens and the earth was created in seven periods. I don't know how long.
Just for your knowledge Islam believes that the Torah and gospel are know collectively as the people of the book. It is also part of faith to believe in them but at the same time to know that the laws have been abrogated and the texts changed. As the quran is the final book form of Revelation for mankind.

The same way how we prove the Big Bang theory. we can't simply say Qur'an is right or the Bible is right. So to find out which is correct we should bring a third source. This is the age of science and technology. So we have to analyse with the science whether both scriptures is right or wrong.
Redarding Genesis Story, it matters to everybody not only muslims to all humankind. it talks about the creation of the universe which not only Christians share but we all are include.
Bible may contain a scientific portion. may be it is from God but the unscientific, how we can attribute that to God.
my only intention was to prove that God's revelation should not contain scientific errors.

Muslims only raise some queations about Genesis and not all. THe Bible also says on assasinating Adulterers and Adultress, but it only gets done in Saudi Arabia.
According to the Mosaic Law, the punishment for adultery and coveting your neighbor's wife is death:
"If a man is found sleeping with another man's wife, both the man who slept with her and the woman MUST DIE. (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 22:22)"
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife--with the wife of his neighbor--both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death. (From the NIV Bible, Leviticus 20:10)"
"You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor. (From the NIV Bible, Exodus 20:17)"
Let us now look at what David did with his neighbor's wife in the Bible:
"One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing. The woman was very beautiful, and David sent someone to find out about her. The man said, 'Isn't this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the WIFE of Uriah the Hittite?' Then David sent messengers to get her. She came to him, and he slept with her. (She had purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she went back home. (From the NIV Bible, 2 Samuel 11:2-4)"
Here is how David was punished!
2 Samuel 12:7-8
7 Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man! This is what the LORD , the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
8 I gave your master's house to you, and your master's wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more.
.............
2 Samuel 12:12-14
12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.' "
13 Then David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD ." Nathan replied, "The LORD has taken away your sin. You are not going to die.
14 But because by doing this you have made the enemies of the LORD show utter contempt, the son born to you will die."

The Big Bang was invented by a Catholic.
Islam moreorless accepts the account in Genesis.
What exactly are you asking?

Because the genesis story is not true lol. For example-the genesis story of Noah and the ark is a plagarized rip off of the Babylonian "Epic of Gilgamesh". this babylonian epic predated genisis by over a thousand years. Therefore-genesis isn't true.
