A common Muslim objection is that the Gospels are anonymous and are thus not reliable. There are right in the sense that in the context of Matthew, there is no metion of an author. However this argumentation is fallacious, since this is an argument of silence.

Protestants are known for their zeal for Scripture. And those of the Apostolic Faith must commend Protestants for this.
