Q. 2:75-79 & THE CORRUPT QURAN Members Public

I resume the discussion: Q. 2:75-79 AND BIBLE CORRUPTION. In this post I am going to take the same objection leveled against the Holy Scriptures and apply it to the Quran as to show that it is the Muslim scripture that has been corrupted and altered. Recall from the
