Absolutely wrong about Quran, I would suggest one reading from a short treatise " An introduction to the study of Holy Quran" by Mirza Bashiruddin Mahmood Ahmad, its chapter on "Compilation of the Quran" from pages 259 to 271:

THE COMPILATION OF THE QURAN 259
Devices Adopted To Safeguard the Text of the Quran 260
Instructors of the Quran 261
Reciters of the Quran 263
The Quran Committed to Memory 263
The Quran Collected in One Volume 265
Standardized Copies of the Quran 266
Practice of Committing the Quran to Memory Continued 267
Arrangement of Chapters and Verses 269
Some Prophecies of the Quran 271
Right?

Regards
Sure, that’s the ‘explanation’ as to why believers should consider it legit, but the basic reality is a matter of historical record. There were many divergent writings, luckily the Angel Gabriel stepped in to ensure the ‘right’ ones were chosen. All religions have stories like that to ‘prove’ they are the right religion, but no adult person should take any of that seriously.

You don’t need the historical proof to know the infallible line is bunkum in any case, the existing codices of the Quran western scholars have been allowed to examine have some minor differences between them. Only a v small number of carefully vetted Islamic scholars are allowed to see the remainder, presumably as the text contains differences that are too great to ignore.
