As for their assertion that it was later set down in seventy-two languages, even if that were true it could only have happened after those first four versions had already been written.

Muslims, for their part, do not claim that the book was produced in seventy-two languages and that its wording was then corrupted in every single tongue (in all seventy-two languages, in every copy thereof). What we maintain is simply that the alteration occurred earlier than that—just as is said about other transmitted works.
