how the Quran that exists today is different from the original manuscripts which are finally being studied in a critical manner.

But isn't that one of the big no-nos in Islam. To question anything in the koran?

Yes. The scholar I talked to about this issue is a Christian and has done some research and has told me about a secualar scholar who gained access to some of the manuscripts.

In addition, there were some ancient Qurans discovered several years ago in Yemen. I think Atlantic Monthly wrote an explosive piece about these texts.
