Was Quran the only book which wasn't corrupted and what proof is there that it is really the last book of guidance?

1- It is revealed in one of the most eloquent languages that were ever there in the world and its name was giiven by Allah himself, Quran.

2- It has divine order and not chronological order like any otehr book.

3-It is revealed to one Prophet and so there are less chances of error.

4- Even though Quran is more of a book of signs, it has science in it too, it explains the universe is expanding, it hints to the big bang, it describes how the human body of fromed before birth, it expalisn everything in the universe is in am orbit,it has Ocean disivison, it exains about iron within meteorites , it describes how clouds are formed, the structure of mountains, aboud pain receptors and it shows many signs. how could any normal human, or prophet who can't read and write get to know all that from no where, this is surely the best proof that Muhammed pbuh couldn't have just wrote the Quran, it is from God.

5- Since it was complied no single word has changed ever and it is word to word.

6-Millions have other memorized in their hearts.

7- Previous scriptures we dont exactly k ow where they were revealed, hut For Quran the revelation started at cave of Hira and that place is still there.

8-No one is capable to write a book like Quran, bcz its inimitable.

[quote]Critics argue, verses which allegedly explain modern scientific facts, about subjects such as biology, the origin and history of the Earth, and the evolution of human life, contain fallacies and are unscientific.[77][78][79]

As of 2008, both Muslims and non-Muslims have disputed whether there actually are "scientific miracles" in the Quran. Muslim critics of the movement include Indian Islamic theologian Maulana Ashraf ‘Ali Thanvi, Muslim historian Syed Nomanul Haq, Muzaffar Iqbal, president of Center for Islam and Science in Alberta, Canada, and Egyptian Muslim scholar Khaled Montaser.[80] The movement has been dismissed as the product of a “deep, deep inferiority complex”, “apologia of the worst type.” [/quote]

[quote]Pakistani theoretical physicist Pervez Hoodbhoy writes that

[i]the problem with such claims to ownership is that they lack an explanation for why quantum mechanics, molecular genetics, etc., had to await discovery elsewhere. Nor is any kind of testable prediction ever made. No reason is offered as to why antibiotics, aspirin, steam engines, electricity, aircraft, or computers were not first invented by Muslims. But even to ask such questions is considered offensive.[/i][81][80] [/quote]

[quote] Critics argue that while it is generally agreed the Quran contains many verses proclaiming the wonders of nature, it requires[b] "considerable mental gymnastics and distortions to find scientific facts or theories in these verses"[/b] (Ziauddin Sardar);[60]

that the Quran is the source of guidance in right faith (iman) and righteous action (alladhina amanu wa amilu l-salihat) but the idea that it contained "all knowledge, including scientific" knowledge has not been a mainstream view among Muslim scholarship (Zafar Ishaq Ansari);[62][need quotation to verify]


[b]"Science is ever-changing ... the Copernican revolution overturning polemic models of the universe to Einstein's general relativity overshadowing Newtonian mechanisms".[8] So while "Science is probabilistic in nature" the Quran deals in "absolute certainty"[/b]. (Ali Talib);[86]


Nidhal Guessoum has also been highly critical of "pseudo-scientific claims" made about the Quran.[52]


Critics also argue that some classical beliefs based on interpretations of the Quran have been abandoned following the introduction of modern technology/science in the Muslim world. Nidhal Guessoum points out (as noted above), that a literal interpretation of some Quranic verses indicates that before a baby is born its gender is known only to God, i.e. is Al-Ghaib. [b]This was what Muslims believed for centuries, but ultrasound technology has "led many Muslims to realize that first-degree readings of the Quran can lead to contradictions and predicaments"[/b].[ [/quote]
