The word tahrif as mentioned in the page doesn’t always mean that the previous revelations of God were altered in text. There are two types of tahrif, tahrif of interpretation, and tahrif of the text. Important to note.

'''{{transl|ar|ALA|Taḥrīf}}''' ({{lang-ar|تحريف}}, {{Translation|'distortion'}}) is an [[Arabic|Arabic-language]] term used by some [[Muslims]] to refer to the alterations that are believed to have been made to the previous revelations of [[God in Abrahamic religions|God]]—specifically those that make up the ''[[Torah in Islam|Tawrat]]'' (or [[Torah]]), the ''[[Zabur]]'' (or [[Psalms]]) and the [[Gospel in Islam|''Injil'']] (or [[Gospel]]). It is also used to refer to what Muslims consider to be the wrongcorrupted interpretations of the previous revelations of God by [[Jews]] and [[Christians]] concerning the previous revelations of God, known as “Tahrif al-Mana”. This position does not hold that the previous revelations of God were altered in text.
