Please note that the Trinity is not polytheism, you just dont get its concept.
No He did not allow for the books to be tampered with and true we do believe the bible has been. Muslims believe God himself protects the Qur'an and it is the final revelation. We have what are called "hafiz" who memorise the Qur'an from start to finish so no matter how many books are destroyed it can always be reproduced word for word.
As Muslims, we follow the historical Jesus. I know the Trinity isn't polytheism. Even as a former church goer, there was just so much I could not accept (such as Jesus being God in human form...and u don't need to lecture me on this because I've heard it all by ppl trying to convince me). It's not in the bible nor does Jesus (peace be upon him) claim to be God.
Jew, Christian or Muslim = ONE God. It's so simple.
