Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is well known that the revealed heavenly books are four: the Torah, the Zabur, the Injil, and the Qur'an. What about the scrolls of Ibrahim and Musa mentioned in the Noble Qur'an; verses 18 and 19 of Surat al-A'la? I ask you to provide a brief overview and definition of these purified scrolls?
Answer:
Allah the Exalted has informed us that He sent His messengers with clear proofs and the Zabur, as He (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: :[An-Nahl 16:43] with clear proofs and the Zabur [al-Nahl: 43-44]. And the Zabur are: the books.
And He the Exalted said in Surat al-Hadid:[Al-Hadid 57:25] the verse [al-Hadid: 25], and He the Exalted specified the scrolls of Ibrahim and Musa in Surat (Exalt the name of your Lord, the Most High), and He the Exalted distinguished from these books and scrolls: the Torah revealed to Musa, the Zabur revealed to Dawud, the Injil revealed to 'Isa, and the Qur'an revealed to Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
And the servants have no knowledge except what Allah has taught them in His Book, or through the tongue of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). And success is from Allah.

Answer:
Allah the Exalted has informed us that He sent His messengers with clear proofs and the Zabur, as He (Glorified and Exalted is He) said: :
And We sent not before you except men to whom We revealed [Our message]. So ask the people of the message if you do not know.
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا مِن قَبْلِكَ إِلاَّ رِجَالًا نُّوحِي إِلَيْهِمْ فَاسْأَلُواْ أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ And He the Exalted said in Surat al-Hadid:
We have already sent Our messengers with clear evidences and sent down with them the Scripture and the balance that the people may maintain [their affairs] in justice.
لَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا رُسُلَنَا بِالْبَيِّنَاتِ وَأَنزَلْنَا مَعَهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْمِيزَانَ لِيَقُومَ النَّاسُ بِالْقِسْطِAnd the servants have no knowledge except what Allah has taught them in His Book, or through the tongue of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). And success is from Allah.
