Were the heavenly books (the Zabur, the Injeel, and the Tawrah) revealed in the same way the Qur'an was revealed, and what is the verse that indicates that?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The three Books were revealed to Allah's prophets: the Zabur to David, the Injil to Jesus, and the Tawrah to Moses. They were revealed by way of inspiration through Jibril (peace be upon him), as stated in Allah's Almighty words: "The Trustworthy Spirit has descended with it." And it was also stated: "And to David We gave the Zabur." As for the specific manner of revelation for each book, nothing is known about it, and a Muslim should occupy himself with what necessitates action.
