Not true.
Show me chapter and verse in the quran to substantiate your claim.
I'll wait.
Seriously?!! Do you not know that both the bible and the quran are texts that are versions of the original - the torah or tanakh (depending on who you're speaking to)? If not, then you really are as clueless as people say you are!!! And yet you preach the word of God?!! lulz
SIMILARITIES BETWEEN
THE BIBLE, THE QURAN & THE TORAH
Compiled By Moin Ansari for course at American Islamic Academy
THE QURAN:The Qur?an (also Quran, Koran, Alcoran; Arabic قُرْآن) is the Islamic holy book of Allah (Arabic for God).
Muslims believe that the Qur?an is the literal word of God, revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of 22 years. The Qur?an consists of 114 suras (chapters) with a total of 6,236 ayats (verses). The Qur?an retells stories of many of the people and events of the Jewish and Christian Bibles, although it differs in many details.

There are several events that are present in both holy books in some form. The Biblical versions are concerned mainly with narrative and detail, whilst the Qur?anic versions are much more concerned with the stories as parables and moral teachings and they often contain little in the way of detail.The events are listed in the order that they appear in the Bible, as they appear chronologically in the Bible whilst they often don?t in the Qur?an.
For starters, there's this story about Adam and Eve.
The story appears in Genesis 2:4 ? 4:1 in the Bible. It appears in many verses in the Qur?an: verses 30-39 of Surah 2: Al Baqarah (The Heifer), verses 11-25 of Surah 7: Al A?raf (The Heights), verses 26-42 of Surah 15: Al Hijr, verses 61-65 of Surah 17: Al Isra? (The Night Journey)/Bani Isra?il (The Children of Israel), verses 50-51 of Surah 18:Al Kahf (The Cave), verses 110-124 of Surah 20: Ta Ha and in verses 71-85 of Surah 38: Sad. Adam and Eve Biblical version: After God makes the heavens and the earth he decides to make a man, called Adam, out of dust on the ground. When this is done God breathes into the man?s nostrils the breath of life, which makes him come alive. He then puts the man into a garden at Eden, which contains trees and fruit as well a river for watering.
Also, in the middle of the garden there are two trees ? the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge. God tells Adam that he is to look after the garden and that he can eat from any tree he wants except the Tree of Knowledge, else he shall die. Later, God decides that Adam needs a companion and helper. He gets together all the animals, which Adam names, but they are all unsuitable. So God sends Adam into a deep sleep and takes out one of Adam?s ribs. He makes a woman out of this rib, which he shows to Adam. They are both naked and without shame. Now, in the garden there is a snake, who is craftier than all the other animals. The snake asks the woman if God really forbade the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden. The woman replies that this is correct: if they do eat it then they will die. The snake replies that she will not die if she eats the fruit, but that her ?eyes will be opened? and she will be like God, knowing good and evil. The woman then sees that the fruit looks good, and that it will give her wisdom. She eats some of it and gives some to Adam. They both realize that they?re naked and they sew fig-leaves to cover themselves. Meanwhile, God is walking in the garden. Adam and his wife hear him and they hide. God then calls out, ?Where are you?? Adam then comes out and says that he was afraid to see God due to his nakedness so he hid when he heard Him coming. God asks Adam, ?Who told you you were naked?? He then asks Adam if he has eaten the fruit of the forbidden tree. Adam replies by saying, ?The woman that you gave to me offered me some, so I ate.? God angrily asks the woman what she has been up to. She says that the snake deceived her so she ate some of the fruit. God then turns to the snake and tells it that because of its evil deed it shall be lowered beneath all the other creatures. He tells the snake that it is consigned to crawl on its belly and ?eat dust? for all the rest of its life. There will also be enmity between snakes and men from now on. God then turns to the woman and tells her that because of her deeds her pains during childbirth shall be greatly increased, and that her husband shall rule over her. God then turns to Adam and tells him that because of his deeds he shall suffer through painful toil all his life in order to make food.After this, Adam names his wife Eve and God makes clothes for them. God realizes that the Tree of Life is still a temptation and decides to banish Adam and Eve from the garden. He puts some cherubim to guard the entrance to the garden with a ?flaming sword?.
Adam and Eve (Adaam and Hawwa) Qur?anic versionAllah tells the angels that he is going to create a vice-regent on earth from clay. The angels respond by asking why Allah is placing a creature that will ?make mischief? and spill blood on the earth, whilst the angels sing Allah?s praises. Allah merely replies: ?I know what you don?t.? Allah then creates a man, named Adam, from sounding clay moulded into shape and He breathes into it His spirit.Now that Adam is alive, Allah teaches him the names of all things. Allah then goes to the angels and shows them some of these things, which they can?t name. The angels realise now Allah?s plan, and they profess His glory. Allah says that He knows the secrets of the heavens and the earth. Allah then tells the angels to bow down to Adam in obeisance. All of them do, except Iblis (Lucifer/Satan), who is a Jinn. Allah demands to know why Iblis refuses to bow down. Iblis responds by saying that he is better then the man as he?s a Jinn, and hence made out of fire and not mere clay. Allah is angered and is about to throw Iblis out when Iblis asks for respite till the Day of Judgment, whilst in the meantime he will try to lure people away from Allah and towards evil. Allah agrees to grant Iblis respite, but says that no righteous men will be lured by Iblis, and if any humans do then they shall spend eternity in the fire of Hell. After this Allah puts Adam and his wife (she is not actually named) into a garden, where there is no toil or pain and where there is more than enough food to eat. Allah tells them that they are not to eat from a certain tree in the garden. He also warns them of the lure of Satan (Iblis) and that they should not follow him as he is their enemy. Satan nevertheless manages to whisper suggestions to the pair, such as their state of nakedness. He tells them that Allah only forbade the tree because if they eat of it then they shall become like angels and live forever. Encouraged, Adam and his wife eat of the tree. They realise that they are naked and they make coverings out of leaves for themselves. Allah then comes and is furious with Adam. He reminds him that He told them not to eat of the tree, and He warmed them of Satan?s lure. As a punishment, Allah sends Adam and his wife down to the earth, where they and their kind shall live for a while before the Day of Judgment. The pair beg for forgiveness and mercy, and Allah takes pity on them and forgives them (but they are still to live on earth). Allah then gives Adam ?words of inspiration?. He tells them that from time to time He will be sending messengers, and that they should be followed.
And so on and so on and so on and so on....
Thus, the conclusion is either you are ignorant of other religions or are engaging in some form of cognitive dissonance, neither of which are cool at all. So yeah, you may be even more Muslim than you originally thought! Moreso than even that dude, Omar Mateen! lulz
Insha'Allah!
