This book is a scholarly work about the Qur'an that does not pull punches. It may be too technical for some, but for others looking for more than an elementary study of comparative religions, this book is for them. I found it fascinating, accurate, and eye-opening.

There is a general and popular

misconception that the Christian Bible and the Muslim Qur'an are essentially the same book with a different cover. This could not be further from the truth, and to be intellectually honest, one must study the differences to make such a claim. "What Every Christian Needs to Know about the Qur'an" is not only for Christians, but for anyone wanting to know about what the Qur'an says and how it was written.

A textbook from my course at Reformed Theological Seminary called “Christian Encounter With Islam.” Dr. White does an amazing (and irenic) job of a brief history of Muhammad and the birth of Islam and a scholarly approach examining the Qur’an.

A great recourse for anyone...
