How to defend Quran without reading other scriptures?

“During a course of a discussion with one of the Madhus, I told him that Quran is my discovery. He asked me whether I have read Bible and Gita. I told him that I have not read it. He said to me then how can you say that Quran is the book leading to the right path? He further added that first you have to read all the books, then only you can decide. How should I tackle such questions?”Asked by ساجد انور, روڑکی

mister sajid anwar ne roorkee se sawal kiya hai, unhon ne likha hai ke maulana during course of a discussion with one of the mad'oos, I told him that Quran is my discovery. he asked me whether I have read Bible and Geeta. I told him that I have not read it. he said to me then how can you say that Quran is the book leading to the right path? he further added that first you have to read all the books, then only you can decide. maulana how should I tackle such questions? dekhiye yeh mere nazdeek sahi baat nahin hai. kyunke aap ko bible ke bare mein aik general knowledge phir bhi maujood yaqeenan hogi.

aap ne chahe is ki study na bhi ki ho, general tor par aap ko maloom hai is ke bare mein. ke bible kyunke woh log missionary log baton ko kehte hain aur logon se batate hain. misal ke tor par trinity concept. aap ko bible ka gehra mutala kiye baghair aap jaan sakte hain ke woh log trinity ko tabligh karte hain. ke khuda aik bhi hai aur teen bhi hain. to yeh is ke liye gehre mutale ki zaroorat nahin hai. aur jab aap quran ko parhenge ke quran mein khuda aik hai is concept hai to aap ka nature kahega ke aik aik hi sahi hai.
32:11
teen sahi nahin hain. kyunke kainat mein jo itni bari kainat hai is ko yeh manage kar raha hai. to itni harmony kyun hai? agar teen khuda hon to harmony nahin ho sakti itni harmony. aisi abhi sab log jante hain ke woh un ka yeh nazariya batate hain woh log ke masih masloob hui hai sab gunahon ko maaf karne ke liye. yeh bhi unnatural baat hai.
32:35
to yeh aap sochein ke quran mein to yeh hai ke aadmi jo karega us ko bhugtega woh. apne kiye ka khud anjam bhugtega. wahan mere kiye ka anjam paighambar ke upar kyun chalayega? chalega. to unnatural baat hai. to yeh zaroori nahin hai ke aap bible ka gehra mutala karen. khud bible walon ne jo baatein bata rakhi hain woh sab jante hain sab log. woh to phailate hain woh log khud. to is se aap compare karne ki position mein hain. to aik hai scholarly comparison. scholarly comparison har aik ki zaroori nahin hai. general comparison to har aik kar sakta hai. kyunke sab log jante hain ke kya christian log kis baat ki tabligh karte hain.

ji. maulana agla sawal aaya hai mister zeeshan yusuf ka hyderabad se. unhon ne likha hai: "in one of the discussions with my doctor, he said that first impression he got from quran is that god wants to scare people and threaten man to worship
