Muslims believe that the Bible has been corrupted and is not the true word of God.

The claim that the Bible has been corrupted is often based on the assumption that the Quran is the final revelation of God, superseding previous scriptures. However, historical evidence shows that the Bible has been meticulously copied and preserved over centuries. Numerous ancient manuscripts, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, demonstrate the consistency of the biblical text over time. Furthermore, the early church fathers quoted scripture extensively, providing additional verification of the text's integrity. Moreover, the New Testament was written within the lifetime of eyewitnesses to the events it describes, which adds to its credibility. The early Christians faced persecution and had every incentive to ensure the accuracy of their teachings. The existence of multiple manuscripts and translations also supports the argument that the core message of the Bible has remained intact. In contrast, the Quran claims to be the literal word of God as revealed to Muhammad, but it does not provide the same level of historical documentation or manuscript evidence as the Bible. The reliance on oral tradition in the early Islamic community raises questions about the preservation of the Quranic text. Thus, while Muslims may assert the corruption of the Bible, the evidence suggests that the biblical texts have been reliably transmitted and remain a trustworthy source of God's revelation.
