Is this true that some chapters of Quran are taken as is from Torah, if yes, which one?

There are certainly similarities between Torah and the Qu'ran, but owing to different emphases (and names), Torah chapters do not seem to have been copied verbatim. More than one site I examined pointed out that Torah passages tend to include more narrative detail, while the Qu'ran gets right to the moral point. In addition (although this is a controversial subject among Qu'ranic scholars), revisions and codifications over the centuries probably resulted in a Qu'ran that is rather different from the original, let alone from Torah. This is a long site but it offers several comparisons. It would be nice if we had a player who is very familiar with both texts: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarities_between_the_Bible_and_the_Qur%27an Feb 18 06, 12:12 PM
