As the deity allegedly rushed his build over a six day period, it could open to interpretation of shoddy workmanship and or cost cutting practises. Nothing short of criminal negligence overlooking planer fractures, owing to the billions of years timeframes involved. Prosecution rests:

Well, I don't know the details of what Muslims believe to be holy writ, but on that basis neither the King James nor the New Jerusalem are the Bible. You raise the interesting and thorny question of the validity of translation of the scriptures (any scriptures, from any religion). It was debated for centuries.

The Bible is a false analogy nowadays in that context unless you are talking about an equally Conservative sect/denomination of Christianity.

Whilst Catholics learn Latin to recite prayers, they cannot pretend it was the original language used to write it down and don't believe it was dictated by god as Muslims do.

Why is the Qur'an only in Arabic?

Why do Muslims read the Quran in Arabic? Is the Quran translated into different languages? If so, what is the difference between the Arabic and the translated versions? The Quran is only in Arabic. This is not to say that it cannot be translated, but the translation is not the same thing as the

According to Islamic theology, the Qurʻan is a revelation very specifically in Arabic, and so it should only be recited in Quranic Arabic. Translations into other languages are necessarily the work of humans and so, according to Muslims, no longer possess the uniquely sacred character of the Arabic original.

According to scientists, in around 80 million years, our planet and the solar system is going to disappear. Well considering he/it/she is lauded as being omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent he/it/she must have planned the event. If, however, it was a cock up, then perhaps he/it/she might wish to take a couple of extra days when building the next project.

A cock up by our creator? That's blasphemy surely, even if you didn't say "Jehovah".
 
Religion, total utter fantasy, the belief in it is about as real as tooth fairies, Leprechauns, and a Utd quadruple.

What's that got to do with the Quran only being the authentic version in Arabic?

It's because there have been multiple religions since the beginning of time, all with their gods, some supposedly greater than the gods worshipped by their enemies. As tribes or nations fought, the victor's would claim their god to be greater than the conquered peoples gods and so on. It still goes on today.
