Om What Should Christians and Jews Know About the Qur'an and Muhammad
Some Christians and Jews believe that Muhammad wrote the Qur'an and do not
know that he was illiterate and could not read or write. Others have not read
the Qur'an and do not know its contents or message. This book is an attempt
to clear misconceptions and answer questions such as who wrote the Qur'an,
and how was it preserved, and if it is divine in origin, what is the evidence for its
authenticity?
The book illustrates the message of the Qur'an and discusses such concepts
as the Oneness of God, and our accountability to Him. It also explores God's
prophets and God's divine revelations, as well as rituals of worship, morals and
ethics, family values and our interaction as human beings with one another.
There are similarities between the Qur'an and the New Testament regarding
morals and ethics, and our accountability to God, yet there are differences
regarding the divinity of Jesus Christ and the concept of the Trinity and salvation.
The Qur'an acknowledges God's blessings on the Children of Israel and relates
to us the story of Abraham and Moses. We are close to God and favored by Him
because of what we do, not because of our ancestry.
Islam is based on the Qur'an and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Few Christians or Jews know his life story, his noble character or the message that
he preached. This book describes the lessons that we learn from Muhammad,
and clears misconceptions about him.
