The Infamous "Holes in the Narrative" Interview

This is a roughly 20-minute excerpt from a 1hr 45min interview conducted between Mohammed Hijab and Sh. Dr. Yasir Qadhi on June 8, 2020, in which Dr. Qadhi admitted in public that the standard Islamic narrative about the origins and transmission of the Koran has holes in it. This is a fascinating interview to watch because it completely destroys the claims that Muslims make about their Koran.
They claim that the Koran is:
1) Eternal - has existed co-eternally in their heaven with Allah;
2) Revealed - was sent down via Jibreel to their "prophet" Muhammad;
3) Complete - the Koran was revealed in its full form over 22 years and cannot be added to or subtracted from;
4) Unchanged - the Koran as Muslims have it today is EXACTLY the same as the one revealed to their "prophet", not one chapter, verse, word, or letter has changed, and some Muslims even claim that not so much as a single diacritical mark or punctuation mark has ever changed;
5) Guarded - the Koran is protected by Allah from any form of alteration or editing of any kind;

In this interview, Dr. Yasir Qadhi admits, with amazing frankness, that Western academics are now finding huge, gaping holes in this narrative - and these holes come from Islam's own primary sources.

This is the interview that sparked a massive crisis of faith among Muslims around the world, and especially hardcore Muslims in the West, who can no longer argue that their "sacred" book is preserved, protected, complete, unchanged, or revealed. The preponderance of evidence at this point makes very clear that the Koran was man-made, plagiarised, subjected to extensive editing and revision by a huge number of authors and readers and transmitters, and is not the same as the manuscript texts to which the modern Koran can be compared.

I do not own this video, this was taken and saved by others (not me) from Dr. Qadhi's YouTube channel before he scrubbed this segment of the interview, and then scrubbed the entire interview itself. Mohammed Hijab also scrubbed the entire interview from his YouTube channel, because of the extreme backlash generated from within the Muslim community after thousands watched the interview and realised that their entire faith is built on false foundations.
