“Okay, how so?”

The Mohammedans hold that God dictated the Koran to Mohammad through the voice of the Angel Gabriel. It is actually the word of Allah. So far as I can see, that is precisely the position of many Protestants ( and only Protestants so far as I know) vis a vis the bible, but without the intermediary assistance of the Archangel.
