Recently a lot of apologists and Christian Youtubers have been talking about the Muslim dilemma. This outlines the massive inconsistencies there are in the Quran how it says its a revelation from God that confirms and builds upon the Torah (5 books of Moses: Genesis to Deuteronomy) and the Injil (The Gospel) yet at the same time denies Jesus Christ as the Son of God, God in the flesh and that He died on the cross. The Quran came 600 years after Jesus Christ and goes against all the thousands of New Testament manuscripts we have in ancient Greek earliest being 150AD, with the earliest full bibles dated approx. 350AD, along with writings by the Jewish historian Josephus 93AD and the Roman historian Tacitus 116AD they all talk about Christ being crucified and put to death and a movement following Jesus Christ as God.

HOW CAN THE QURAN SAY IT FOLLOWS THE GOSPEL AND TORAH YET AT THE SAME TIME GO AGAINST IT!
These verses in the Quran which goes against the Bible and other ancient writers
Surah 4 An-Nisa 157-158
and for boasting, “We killed the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, the messenger of Allah.” But they neither killed nor crucified him—it was only made to appear so. Even those who argue for this ˹crucifixion˺ are in doubt. They have no knowledge whatsoever—only making assumptions. They certainly did not kill him. Rather, Allah raised him up to Himself. And Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.
Surah 4 An-Nisa 171 O People of the Book! Do not go to extremes regarding your faith; say nothing about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger of Allah and the fulfilment of His Word through Mary and a spirit ˹created by a command˺ from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers and do not say, “Trinity.” Stop!—for your own good. Allah is only One God. Glory be to Him! He is far above having a son! To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs.
Surah 5 Ayat 73 Those who said: ‘Allah is one of the Three’, certainly they disbelieved, for there is no god save the One God. And if they do not give up this claim, all who have disbelieved among them shall be subjected to painful chastisement.
THE ONLY MUSLIM ARGUEMENT AGAINST THIS IS THEY SAY THE GOSPEL WE HAVE IS CORRUPTED
Yet at the same time the Quran says it follows the Torah and the Gospel:
Surah 4 An-Nisa 47 If you believe in the Torah and believe in the Ingil then you must believe in what Mohammed said
Surah 5 Al-Ma’idah Ayat 46-47 Then in the footsteps of the prophets, We sent Jesus, son of Mary, confirming the Torah revealed before him. And We gave him the Gospel containing guidance and light and confirming what was revealed in the Torah—a guide and a lesson to the God-fearing. So let the people of the Gospel judge by what Allah has revealed in it. And those who do not judge by what Allah has revealed are ˹truly˺ the rebellious.
Surah 3 Ali ‘Imran – 33-34 Indeed, Allah chose Adam, Noah, the family of Abraham, and the family of ’Imrân above all people ˹of their time˺. They are descendants of one another. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
Surah Yunas 94-95 If you ˹O Prophet˺ are in doubt about ˹these stories˺ that We have revealed to you, then ask those who read the Scripture before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so do not be one of those who doubt, and do not be one of those who deny Allah’s signs or you will be one of the losers.

The Quran was written after a angel came and spoke to Mohammed in a cave where he got this “revelation from god”
Revelation 22: 18-19 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll. And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.
Galatians 1: 8-9 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!
ISLAM LIKE JEHOVAH WITNESSES, MORMONS AND SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS RELY ON A FOUNDER WHO HAS AN ENCOUNTER WITH AN ANGEL TWISTING THE SCRIPTURES TO CHANGE THE WORD OF GOD
