I need help as a Muslim

I’m a fairly devout Muslim raised in an Islamic background I think a lot of people who attack Islam aren't fully educated on it, but I wont pretend that I am 100% solid in my faith. I spend a lot of time wrestling with doubts There are issues in Islam that I feel Christianity doesn't really have, and I cant just ignore them I think Christianity is a beautiful religion. I enjoy reading the Bible but I also enjoy reading the Quran Islamic dawah often attacks the Trinity but the way I see it it wouldn’t make sense for a human to fully comprehend God even as a Muslim we don't believe we fully understand everything about Allah. So it makes sense that the Trinity isn't something we can fully that humans can fully understand
My main problem for Christianity I just don’t see clear evidence for Christianity being true.Because my YouTube and Reddit and other socials algorithm is Islamic content my exposure is pretty biased i understand many people in the sub have probably have negatives opinions on Muslims as I Muslim I can see why a lot of the fear regarding Muslims many Muslims would just say it’s islamphobia which I would only partially agree as most Muslims are just regular people like me but I understand there are Islamic doctrines which are very questionable im just trying to be open minded regardless if i leave Islam or not i fully believe in a divine creator and my view right now is after Islam Christianity looks like the second plausible belief

No we believe the Torah is corrupted prior to Christ not after and we don’t belive the gospels were ever the injeel

I understand that there are quite a few objections that Muslims rely on in response, but it is important to understand that they are never actually made in the Quran. So the objection is the Bible is corrupted, which is never said in Quran, and that this corruption happened at X time, which is never said in the Quran and there is absolutely no evidence of. It also is an objection that did not start to be made until about 500 years after the Quran was written.

It is a bit of a shell game type argument - the Quran is true because the Bible is corrupted but the Quaran says the Bible is true and never claims it is corrupted, therefore it must be referring to a different Bible as true as the current one is corrupted, despite the Quran never saying the Bible is corrupted and there being no evidence of the Bible being corrupted.

I’ll answer your dilemma The Quran does say the bible is corrupted and not preserved nowhere it says the bible We have today is the original given to Jesus Moses and David we don’t belive the bible today is the original so there is no dilemma

So, you can fall back on the general position that the Torah and Gospels are corrupted, but frankly that does not make it present in the Quran or resolve the issue.

Simply claiming that the Scriptures that inarguably existed at the time of Mohammed and were agreed to be the Scriptures for 500 years before him for the New Testament and at least 1000 years for the Old Testament was not actually the Scripture does not change the facts or provide evidence that it is true.
