Qur An Vs Bible
The first difference between the Qur’an and the Bible is their beginnings. The Qur’an is not clear about how the world is made. The Bible, however, has a clear beginning that establishes many key points. The treatment of women is different, and both books instruct their followers to “evangelize” differently. The Qur’an contains subjects and stories that are in the Bible, but they are twisted and changed. The Qur’an also has entirely different events that take place after the time the Bible was finished. In the Qur’an, Jesus is just a prophet. There is no Trinity. Jesus and Mohammad had disciples, but what they taught was very different in the Bible versus the Qur’an. The Qur’an and the Bible have many differing points about the treatment

    They both teach the creation of the world by a supreme, infinite God who commands human beings to follow the morality paths set out for them. The Bible contains the same messages as the bible, but they both are worded differently. One verse in the Bible states, ““Which law is the first of all?” Jesus said in answer, “The first is, Give ear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord”” (The Holy Bible, Mark 12:28-30). In comparison, a verse in the Quran states, “And your God is One God. There is no God but Him, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.” (The Holy Quran, Al-Baqara 2:163) By all means, if they say the Quran promotes violence, does that mean the bible promotes violence as…

    The three major holy books of the monotheistic faiths are similar because they all contain the holy scriptures recorded by followers inspired by God. The primarily difference between them all is that each religion considers what they say is "correct". For example in Christianity they believe in the trinity nature of God and Islam doesn't believe. Also, the Jewish faith doesn't believe that Jesus was the Messiah but Christianity does.…

    There is no factual accuracy in the Muslim’s identification of Jesus. They confirm He is the Messiah, but their definition of the Messiah was not one that died and was raised from the dead, as proven by historians and scholars. They saw him as a prophet, on the same level as Muhammad. This is another failed criterion.…

    The bible has a more detailed list of events that are explained in the bible, unlike the Qur’an. For example, “1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. 3Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. 5God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.”. This is the description of the first day when God created the universe. Genesis 1 clearly states the steps that God is taking to create the earth. Although it does not define a day as a 24-period, it is not too much of a leap to come to this conclusion since it says “So the evening and the morning were the first…

    To begin with, the Bible changed previous practices and was different from other religions. It has Hebrew lineage and origin with Israelites and Jews. The Bible itself was not subject to time and space and it was omnipotent. It called for no more animal sacrifices or rituals to be made. God was the transcendent creator. The Ancient Israelite religion was no longer in practice and the Temple in Jerusalem no longer existed. The books of the Old Testament were Jorah, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. They all had no common theme within them…

    ANSWER: Some of the similarities between the Bible, the Qur’an and the Torah are that they are all viewed by the people in each faith to give spiritual guidance to understand the history of their faith. They also talk about God and the history of their faith. Their differences are that the Torah writes talks about the “old testament” which talks about the revelations of moses. The Bible talks about the “old testament” found in the Torah and also what the Christians call the “new testament” which talks about the history and teachings of Jesus. The Qur’an talks about what is to be considered the literal word of Allah. It also has Muhammad’s teachings.…

    Fasting is mentioned both in the Quran and in the Sermon on The Mount, however, the Quran focuses more on why the believers should fulfill it and what they’re required to do if they can’t fulfill it during Ramadan, whereas in the Sermon on The Mount, the interpretation revolves around being genuine while fasting. According to the passages from the Quran, “ O believers, prescribed for you is the Fast, even as it was prescribed for those that were before you ---- haply you will be god fearing ---- for days numbered; and if any of you be sick, or if he be on a journey, then a number of other days” (8:238). The word prescribe was used because as an advice that a believer should take into consideration in order enter Heaven. In order to reach the gates of Heaven, it would be highly necessary for believers to fast…

    There are hundreds of religions throughout the world but the two most examined seem to be Christianity and Islam. These two religions have been brought into the spotlight throughout the years but more recently so with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. People speculate on rumors of each religion but how much do we actually know? Unless you are a religious scholar, odds are you do not know any more than what the internet and television tell you. Each religion has its own view on creation, the end times, the afterlife and the behaviors its members must maintain in order to achieve a place in such. These two religions may have their different views but are they truly that much different? Over the next couple of pages we will take a look at each religion and their religious views and beliefs.…

    Christianity vs. Islam

    • 299 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Two of the largest religions in the world today didn’t just get this way overnight. Both these religions emerged throughout time and spread in various ways. Christianity existed several centuries prior to the birth of Islam, and by the time Muhammad founded Islam in the Middle East, Christianity had moved its center to Europe, where it had firmly established itself as the official religion. But Christianity originally sprouted in the Middle East after Christ's resurrection in A.D. 30. During this early period, Christianity did not expand far beyond Jerusalem. Islam was founded about 550 years later, around the beginning of the seventeenth century. In 610 A.D. Muhammad claimed that he received revelations from God that called him to preach a new religion called Islam. At first he began to do so secretly, but after three years he found the courage to proclaim his new faith publicly and gained a growing number of followers. Islam's growth was limited during this time, and it did not spread far beyond Mecca. Eventually, Muhammad left Mecca and he fled to Medina. He gained many followers here as well. However, his monotheistic message was not well received by many in his polytheistic city. As a result, the early Muslim converts faced persecution, just as the early Christians had. During the first two centuries, Christians did not force their religion on others but relied on missionaries and preaching. When Islamics attacked or occupied new territory, they gave its inhabitants three options: convert to Islam, pay a special tax, or die.…

    The Islamic worldview believes Judaism and Christianity had truth at a point in time and now the Bible is corrupted. Muslims believed that Allah used the Angel Gabriel to reveal Islam’s sacred text to their Prophet Muhammed. Allah’s will is for mankind to obey the teachings of the Qur’an and to know that Allah is one. In total disagreement with the Islamic worldview, Christian’s believe that the Bible is the inerrant word of God. The biblical worldview believes that mankind’s purpose is to have an intimate and personal relationship with God and to glorify the Father, the Son, and the Holy…
