Chapter 6 of the Quran (70) who were the first claiming that the Quran is quoted from other books?

Although the first ones who claimed that the Quran is quoted from other scriptures are the ignorant idolators among the Arabs who were present at the time of the Prophet Muhammad; however, the modern intellectual people nowadays are still imitating and reproducing what the ignorant idolators Arabs have said more than 1400 years ago.

Ayah 104 says:

Say, O Muhammad to the unbelievers:

Clear proofs have come to you from your Lord;

Whoever perceives them and believes in the Quran then it is for his own good, since the reward resulting from his perception will be his; and

Whoever is blind, to them and disbelieves and goes astray, then it, the evil consequence of his being astray, will be to his own hurt and punishment; and

I am not to watch over your doings; I am but a warner.

I am not an overseer for you; I am but a warner.

I am not a keeper over you to protect you; I am but a warner.

 

Ayah 105 says:

And so, in the same way that Allah has displayed His revelations and explained what has been mentioned, Allah dispense elucidates the signs that they might take heed and that the disbelievers may say at the end of this: ‘You have studied with someone’, and you have consulted with the People of the Scripture or that you have studied the scriptures of ancient peoples and brought this Quran therefrom.

As a matter of fact, this prophecy is still effective and the disbelievers still say that the Quran is quoted from other sceiptures.

Although the first ones said that the Quran is quoted from other sceiptures are the ignorant idolators Arabs present at the time of the Prophet Muhammad; however, the modern intellectual people nowadays are still imitating and reproducing what the ignorant idolators Arabs have said more than 1400 years ago.
