The Qur'an never says the physical scriptures of the previous revelations (the [[Taurat]] and [[Injil]]) were corrupted, only their interpretations.  
The Qur'an never says the physical scriptures of the previous revelations (the [[Taurat]] and [[Injil]]) were corrupted, only their interpretations.  
===Qur'an===
Allah brought down the Torah and the Gospel:
{{Quote|{{Quran|3|3}}|He hath revealed unto thee (Muhammad) the Scripture with truth, confirming that which was (revealed) before it, even as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel.}}
{{Quote|{{Quran|5|46}}|And We caused Jesus, son of Mary, to follow in their footsteps, confirming that which was (revealed) before him in the Torah, and We bestowed on him the Gospel wherein is guidance and a light, confirming that which was (revealed) before it in the Torah - a guidance and an admonition unto those who ward off (evil).}}
{{Quote|{{Quran|61|6}}|And when Jesus son of Mary said: O Children of Israel! Lo! I am the messenger of Allah unto you, confirming that which was (revealed) before me in the Torah, and bringing good tidings of a messenger who cometh after me, whose name is the Praised One. Yet when he hath come unto them with clear proofs, they say: This is mere magic.}}
The Qur'an supersedes previous scriptures though:
{{Quote|{{Quran|4|47}}|O ye unto whom the Scripture hath been given! Believe in what We have revealed confirming that which ye possess, before We destroy countenances so as to confound them, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath-breakers (of old time). The commandment of Allah is always executed.}}
{{Quote|{{Quran|5|15}}|O People of the Scripture! Now hath Our messenger come unto you, expounding unto you much of that which ye used to hide in the Scripture, and forgiving much. now hath come unto you light from Allah and plain Scripture, Whereby Allah guideth him who seeketh His good pleasure unto paths of peace. He bringeth them out of darkness unto light by His decree, and guideth them unto a straight path.}}
Nothing in the Qur'an, though, is other than what was given to the other apostles of Allah
{{Quote|{{Quran|41|43}}|Naught is said unto thee (Muhammad) save what was said unto the messengers before thee. Lo! thy Lord is owner of forgiveness, and owner (also) of dire punishment.}}
