"...which version "

The Quran is different from the Bible in one key way. The Bible is a collection of books gathered together over time, documenting the verbal history that was passed down by the Israelites combined with texts that were 'selected' and judged to best represent the Christian doctrine. Much of the text is historical record, some is lovely poetry, profound wisdom, inspired communication between members, and some is represented as God's word coming directly from God to man.

The Quran is represented as a book that was entirely delivered by God via an Angel directly to God's messenger and written down by scribes at the time. Tremendous efforts have been made over centuries to either authenticate that or find a flaw in the claims. One of the statements toward the end of the Quran is that the Quran would be the only book protected by God until judgement. That means that if we could prove even one word of the Quran has been changed since Mohammed revealed it, then the whole religion is a fraud. If God claims to protect it, no one and no force is powerful enough to change that.

One version or No versions.
