Only this para is partly useful (right). You know it is impossible for every one to learn the basic language of the revelation. In the case of Quran it is possible to learn because the language in which it is revealed (Arabic) is mentioned in the Quran itself. The name of the book (Quran) is mentioned in itself. The name of the person to whom it is revealed is mentioned in it. The name o fthe religion (Islam) is also mentioned in the Quran.
What kind of a reasoning is this? Do you think the name of the book enables one to understand its content? What an extreme formalist you are!
Besides, the Koran contains several words borrowed from foreign languages. I am excluding the Arabic words that are obsolete now.
There are still many parts in the Koran that cannot be understood by Muslims! Thus, the supposed advantages you have posted do not suffice to make it a book easy to comprehend.
planten;3827570:
But such is not the case of the bible. Practically nothing is there. So what can we do. And the language in which bible was revealed is not known (by the bible itself). So we have to go looking for the original language and that may be a dead language now.
Your argument debunks itself from the start because there is nothing called revelation! The original languages of the Bible are Hebrew and Greek, which can still be understood.
Then there was a translation (first one). I would call it transmigration of the whole system to the pagan Greek and Roman system. Then translation from Greek to German and then to English. And the missing three hundred years of the early history played hell with the real knowledge.
Evidence please? Who told you that “the real knowledge” was tampered with? Neither Mohammad nor his book I am sure
The Bible is even historically at least a thousand times more accurate than the Koran, which fears to give the names of significant characters and places due to the limited knowledge of its authors. The Koran also lacks chronological and thematic unity and makes use of anachronism to support its allegations.
It would be good to understand the original language. But where is the original language please?

Where is the original Koran please? Ooops, sorry! I sometimes forget that there was no book named Koran until after Mohammad’s death. Could you please show me the original material (stones, pieces of wood and paper, animal skins, leaves) upon which the original verses had been allegedly written? .
** Again it has no meaning. Muhammad never said that earth is flat. In fact it is the beauty of the Quran which is telling that objects are round (globes) floating in their orbits. So your idea of a flat earth in the time of Muhammad is a dead matter.**
Another beauty of the Koran is that it says Allah created mountains lest the land be shaken when men walk on it! Another beauty: meteors are missiles used by Allah to keep jinns away from his revelations.
