The Quran’s View on Earlier Scriptures

Assalamu alaikum, brothers and sisters. Some of us may hear Christians say that the Dead Sea Scrolls show the Bible was kept safe from change. But in Islam, we know that Allah has told us in the Quran that previous books were altered over time. Can anyone share clear examples or proofs that the Bible has been changed, so we can discuss this kindly with our Christian neighbors?

Facts, man. Even scholars admit there are thousands of textual variants. But Quran has no versions.

Yeah, and what about the woman caught in adultery? John 7:53-8:11, missing in early copies. Smooth talk won't hide that.

Just compare Matthew's genealogy with Luke's-totally different. If it's preserved, why the contradiction?

The Dead Sea Scrolls actually prove variation. Like, the Septuagint has books not in Masoretic text. Human edits, akhi.

I once asked my Christian friend about 1 John 5:7-the Trinity proof-and he didn't know it's a later insertion. Keep it respectful.

Look at the ending of Mark-oldest manuscripts don't have 16:9-20. Added later. Not preserved word for word.

Let's not forget the Quran corrects stories like Jesus not being crucified. Even the Bible shows confusion on that.

Bro, the Quran says they wrote the book with their own hands and claim it's from Allah (2:79). That's clear for me.
