A Bibliography of the Books about the Qur’an’s Being Safe from Distortion

Having a brief look at the books written on the subject that there is no distortion in the Qur’an, one can understand that their approach is a historic one, a kind of sectarian conflict which took form from the third to the fifth century, and has continued since then. In the recent decades, little by little, the approach to the issue of “distortion of the Qur’an” has been being changed from the historic- narrative one to the philosophical-theological one. On the other hand, considering the number of the accusations which about the distortion of the Qur’an are made against Shia in “Sunni- Islamic” radical conversations, it is necessary to address this issue as much as possible. Hence, one of the needs is to compile an up-to-date bibliography of the books which talks of the Qur’an’s being safe from the distortion. In the following paper, the author intends to introduce the bibliographies concerning the mentioned topic. Regarding that, first of all, he presents a brief history of the process of developing the discussion over whether there is distortion in the Qur’an or not, and also a history of the movement of denying the distortion of the Qur’an. Following this, after stating the reasons for the difficulty of compiling a bibliography about this topic, the author suggests some sources, arranged based on their year of publications, for compiling this kind of bibliography. Finally, he is going to review four bibliographies which have specially worked on the issue of the Qur’an and its not being distorted.
