At its core, the Tanakh is seen as the Hebrew version of certain Qur'anic concepts, to which ancient Jewish additions were later incorporated. The Qur'anic elements within it hold no unique value for Muslims, as they are already authentically and accurately preserved in the Qur'an. The additions made by the ancient Jews, however, are considered distortions, rendering the Tanakh as a whole a corrupted text. From an Islamic perspective, it is therefore unreliable for worship or for acquiring sound knowledge—particularly regarding the nature of G-d and the lives of the prophets.

Some early Islamic commentators mistakenly quoted Israelite prophets from the Tanakh. This practice contradicts Islamic principles, as it involves relying on a corrupted source. If the stories attributed to these prophets were indeed essential, they would have been revealed in the Qur'an. If they were not essential, then there is no justification for incorporating them from a source deemed unreliable.Requesting knowledge about the lives of the Israelite prophets from sources outside the preserved Qur'an—particularly from unauthentic texts such as the Tanakh—should be regarded as impermissible (haram) in Islam. Such pursuit involves seeking religious knowledge from a corrupted and unreliable source, rather than relying solely on the divinely preserved and authoritative guidance of the Qur'an.

Muslims have no covenant with God.

In searching the Quran I find no covenant between the Muslim people and God.

Contributor "Yahya Sharif" has mostly repeated what he previously posted here, in more detail; and to which I have already replied.

He wrote: "[...] The additions made by the ancient Jews, however, are considered distortions [...]": 
There are no such "additions".
No details are provided by those in Islam who make such allegations.
There is no evidence of any such "additions".

He also wrote: "[...]  rendering the Tanakh as a whole a corrupted text. [...]":
As I replied to this in my previous post - the majority Islamic view appears to be of an alleged partial-corruption.
