Just as you are here, it is as if He, Glory be to Him, is saying that the Quran is true.

الْقُرْآنَ the Quran

The noun 'the Quran', the subject of the emphasis particle, so it takes the accusative ending that particle imposes, with its own 'the'. Though it is the topic, the particle's grammar overrides the usual subject ending.

From Proofs of Scripture

فَمَنْ أَنْكَرَ أَنْ يَكُونَ اللَّهُ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ بِالْقُرْآنِ فَقَدْ أَنْكَرَ حَقِيقَةَ الرِّسَالَةِ

So whoever denies that God has spoken the Quran has indeed denied the reality of the message.

بِالْقُرْآنِ the Quran

Here a single word bundles three things: the attached 'with/in' preposition, the 'the' marker, and the noun. The preposition governs the noun and forces its genitive ending, and it sets up the means by which the speaking happened. Arabic glues these pieces into one written word where English needs three separate ones.

From Proofs of Scripture

وقراءته مَعَ قارئتهم يقرءُون الْقُرْآن لَا يُجَاوز حَنَاجِرهمْ

And his recitation compared to their recitation; they recite the Quran, but it does not go beyond their throats.

الْقُرْآنَ the Quran

This noun carries 'the' and its ending marks it as the object of the reciting verb, the thing recited. The accusative ending identifies the Quran as what they read aloud.
