At best, you own argument called for an agnostic form of Deism. Most Muslim apologist know this and thus supplement their arguments either by making claims foreknown scientific knowledge in the Koran that cannot possibly come from an 7th century illiterate Arab (pre-supposing that the Hadith and Sirah's account of Mohammed is accurate) or arguments for the Qur'an literacy miracle (i.e. saying that Qur'an is written in such a way that it could only come from God). When one examines those arguments with scrutiny, its does not stand up to reasonable evidence, and most of claims are what Historians called 'reading between the lines', in other words, looking at verse and making exaggerated claims about them. In fact many of the claims are outright false (like Semen coming from the back bones an rips)
