Product Price Comparison
About The Book: This book explores the relationship between Judaism and Islam, suggesting that Muhammad, the founder of Islam, borrowed extensively from Judaism as it existed during his time. The author argues that this idea has long been recognized as probable but lacks sufficient evidence. The purpose of the treatise is to present a scientific analysis of the topic, rather than simply listing apparent adaptations from Judaism or presenting isolated facts without historical context. The treatise is divided into two sections. The first section addresses whether Muhammad intended to borrow from Judaism, the possibility of such borrowing, and how it could have been feasible given his plan. The second section presents facts to support the claim of borrowing, demonstrating its significance by connecting it to other aspects of Muhammad's life and the historical context of his time. An appendix is included, which examines passages where Muhammad appears to have reviewed Judaism in a hostile manner, rather than directly borrowing from it. Overall, the treatise aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between Judaism and Islam and shed light on Muhammad's intentions and actions.
