That's what God does, send His signs in the Qur'an to show that this scripture could only come from Him alone.


That's not a pathway to truth; pointing out parts of the claim doesn't substantiate the claim as a whole any more than does my saying that Darth Vader existed in history because of the phrase "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away".
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
