In Bible Versus Quran, The Price Of A Dog Is An Abomination To God

In the Bible, Deuteronomy 23:17-18, the Lord God commanded that there shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel; neither shall there be a homosexual among the sons of Israel. Also, the Lord God commanded not to bring the hire of a prostitute or the price of a dog into the house of God because they both are abomination to the Lord God.
The verse uses the expression “sodomite”.
Sodomy is the act of anal sex
Sodomy is a term used to describe homosexuality.
The term “sodomite” is taken from the city of Sodom. The word refers to anyone who engages in homosexual or lesbian acts.
The sin was homosexuality. The sin was males with males. Then later in the New Testament God includes females with females.
But why the Lord God forbids prostitution and homosexuality only for the Israelites?
Is it a form of racial discriminations?
It is well known that the cost of owning a dog can be estimated at $700-3000 per year.
The price of a dog depends on its type, age, sex etc. and there are many markets for dogs’ sales and adoptions.
However, the Bible says that the price of a dog is an abomination.
In the Quran, prostitution and homosexuality are forbidden not only for the Israelites but for all human beings.
In addition, neither the hire of a prostitute nor the price of a dog is mentioned therein in the entire Quran.

Deuteronomy 23:17-18
)King James Version)
17There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God.

Back to my question to the smart and interested reader:
Are the Scholars truthful when they claim that the Quran quoted from the Bible?
