Why do believe Quran is word of God?

I've read the entire Qur'an in English. I don't understand Arabic, but I look into the Arabic and study the words, and have had the entire Qur'an read to me in Arabic repeatedly since childhood, as well as English.

I have read the complete translations of Pickthall, Yusuf Ali, Shakir, and probably others, they can all be accessed here at www.islamawakened.com/quran but at home it was Pickthall that was mostly read to me and which I read, Yusuf Ali was the translation used in my transliterated Qur'an which had a transliteration of the Arabic in Roman Text, and Shakir I encountered on a website that used to have the three translations together of Pickthall, Yusuf Ali, Shakir, which I used a lot online, until I discovered this www.islamawakened.com/quran which has the most translations and resources all together for every verse and exposed me to a lot of translations I had never even heard of, and when I quote the Qur'an I mix and match these or change words from one or the other to make them say what I prefer in the way I prefer. For the Bible, I like a similar website with numerous translations and resources put together called Bible Hub or www.biblehub.cc or something.
One made a lot of effort to read and understand Quran, it impresses me.
It seems one's parents were Muslims. Right, please?
I am an Ahmadiyya Muslim, just to inform one.

I dont know. I am only saying there are some history chapters in the OT, which were not words of prophets. Do you believe the whole OT are words of Prophets? How can you tell?

How does the Old Testament having history that isn't directly related to prophecy make it not true? That actually supports the truth and historicity of the Old Testament.

Torah is issued from God, so, in essence it is the truth.
There are some books in OT, which are history. Those contain only some truth.

Why do you question the truth of the history parts of the Old Testament? Historians had to write things accurately back then. Also, the message counts, not the most minute detail.

If you look up what is said about the Bible in Bahai Writings, what you are trying to hint at has no foundation.

The Bible for a Baha'i is God's Word

Inscription in the Old Bible Written by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá in Persian

"THIS book is the Holy Book of God, of celestial Inspiration. It is the Bible of Salvation, the Noble Gospel. It is the mystery of the Kingdom and its light. It is the Divine Bounty, the sign of the guidance of God."

‘Abdu’l-Bahá Abbás.

What does the Bahai writings have to do with Old Testament history?

I beleive the Quran is the Word of God as the Messages of the Bab and Baha'u'llah have also confirmed it.

Where does the Bible support that the Quran is the Word of God?

Daniel and Revelation tell us of a Message that will last 1260 years. The Two Witnesses, Muhammad is the First Woe.

A broken covernant with Muhammad brought about the Beast with 7 kingdoms and 10 rulers, so Islam became a dead body that layed in the streets for 1260 years.

Stands to reason that the Bible foretells of events that would unfold in the Holy Land.

Love to chat, one has to work to give to Caesar what is Caesers.

What do you think the little horn Daniel mentioned has to do with that message or 1260 years?

Are you a historicist? I am a futurist.

The Bible foretold of Israel being regathered and of a valley of dry bones. The Bible predicted the Holocaust. Bible Gateway Ezekiel 37 :: NIV

That Bible verse reminds me of paying taxes. Even if we dont like our leaders we still have to pay them proper taxes.

What is good to consider is that Jesus pointed us back to Daniel and said to the reader, let them understand.

Hopefully I will get back to this tonight, I am at my desk and the hour to start has come ;) Taxes to pay.
