The answer

The Bible is the collection of texts believed in by Christians, comprising the Old and New Testaments. The Old Testament includes the Torah and its appendices, while the New Testament includes the Gospel and its appendices. The French physician Maurice Bucaille, in his book "The Qur'an, the Torah, the Gospel, and Science," pointed out clear contradictions between the Old Testament (the Torah) and modern science, especially in the Book of Genesis. These contradictions primarily focus on the creation of the world and its stages, the date of the world's creation and the appearance of humankind, and the description of the Flood. The encyclopedia "Mahasin al-Islam wa Radd Shubuhat al-Li'am" (The Virtues of Islam and Refutation of the Doubts of the Vile) also addresses these contradictions and proves the corruption of the Bible. As for the Scrolls of Abraham and the Psalms of David, they are lost, and scholars have differed in identifying the Scrolls of Moses.
