Yes I agree with you. The most printed book is of course The Bible! But the most widely read book in the world is Quran. The most memorized book ever is also Quran. Muslim will called someone as 'hafiz' when they have memorize the whole Quran. There are hundred of thousands (both Arab and non-Arab) who memorize the whole Quran. Every Muslim will read a few chapters of Quran in 5 daily prayers. Every Muslims also will read Quran after praying and even more Muslims will reading Quran during the month of Ramadhan, the month of fasting. The most read book is actually Quran. Salaam :)

Then I think you should rephrase your question. Something like: "Do you think the Bible is the most read book in the world?" It may or may not be. There are approximately 2.1 billion Christians in the world according to some sources. However, would this signify that each one of them has read the Bible in its entirety? What about the Quran? Do Muslims study it through and through similar to the Protestant Christians. What about Roman Catholics? I ask this because, when one reads a storybook, or a novel, one usually reads them from cover to cover. But when one reads the Bible, they usually read passages from the Good Book. So what should be the basis or criteria in choosing the most read book in the world? It's not so easy to just say: "The Bible." Even if I wished it was.
