Are there some facts written in the Quran?
If so, the fact that there facts in the Quran must "exist somewhere".
And the fact that the fact that there are facts in Quran must exist somewhere, must also exist somewhere.
And so on. This alone produces an infinite number of facts all existing somewhere. Does God have infinite bookcases full of all this stuff?
Nope... facts (about reality) are statements about reality that return "true", via whatever epistemology you are using. Statements can be true without having to have a corresponding literal manifestation somewhere, further to the parts of reality they are already referencing. At least, you'd have a very hard job demonstrating that they must.
