The Bible and the Qur’an

by Fr. Jacques Jomier
Ignatius Press 2002
100 pages

What do Christians need to know and understand about the Qur’an? In the wake of the September 11, 2001, attacks on the United States, worldwide interest in Islam has reached an unprecedented peak. Thousands convert to Islam each year in the United States alone, and sales of the Qur’an are greatly on the increase. Fr. Jacques has written a scholarly yet readable book that details the profound differences between Christian Scripture and the Islamic sacred texts, differences that are too often glossed over by the mainstream media. He contrasts the essential Muslim teachings with the Jewish and Christian understandings of themselves. Several topics covered include Islamic teaching on Jesus and Mary, the universal mission of the Muslims, and Islamic law in relation to other religions. This book is a necessity for those who wish to understand the highly charged religious elements of the current conflict in the Middle East.
