| Summary: | This book is an anthology which includes all the stories shared by both the Bible and the Qur'an presented side by side, showing verse by verse the similarities and differences between the two. Starting with creation in six days, it leads to the Last Day of Reckoning, with its promise of heaven or hell, ending with characteristics God and Allah share. In the New Testament Jesus saves souls, who become angels on passing through the gates of heaven; in the Qur'an deserving men and women return to the Garden of Eden. It also includes controversial topics such as the position of women, crime, and war. |
