About This Book
Jesus in Islam, Christianity and the Jewish Talmud is a concise comparative study of how Jesus (peace be upon him), the son of Mary, is viewed in three religious traditions. It sets out the Islamic understanding of Jesus as a prophet sent to the Children of Israel and of Mary (peace be upon her) as a devout and truthful woman, and compares it with Christian beliefs and with portrayals of Jesus in the Talmud.
The book also discusses the early divisions among the Children of Israel over Jesus and the later development of Christianity, and presents the Qur'an's account as the clarification of these differences.
