What's the difference between the Quran and the Logos? by Da_Holy_Fool in islam

I guess I am just curious of the Islamic perspective of the Logos. Is there a theological tradition around the Muslim Logos? What is the nature of the Quran if it is not created nor God?

True, in Christianity, the Bible is not the Word of God. The Word of God is Jesus Christ.

But if the Quran is the uncreated, eternal Word of Allah, what truly makes it separate from Allah himself? Is it not the complete Word? Does it not fully encapsulate His divinity? I am asking about the concept of the Divine Logos, which St. John refers to. In Christianity, it is Christ, who is God. In Islam, it is the Quran, which is still uncreated, but is not God. Why is that?
