The Qur´an contradicts the Bible Noah had only one son – and he drowned in the flood (Sura 11:42-43) (Gen 6 + 7) The father of Abraham in the Qur´an was Azar (Sura 6:74) (Gen 11:31) Moses was adopted by Pharaoh´s wife (Sura 28:89) (Exod. 1:5-10) Pharaoh told Haman to build a lofty tower so that he „may go up to the God of Moses“ (Sura 28:38) (Gen 10:32-11:4) Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus, was the sister of Aaron and the daughter of Imran (Sura 19:17-28)

NT Apocrypha Jewish Talmud Eastern Sources Pagan Arabian Past The Hanifites

The Compilation of the Qur’an from a Christian perspective Many different Manuscripts 632 - 636 Different Sources Muhammad 610 - 632 Collection and revision into one document All other manuscripts burnt

Possible uses of the Qur´an for Christians: To learn from it To ask questions To help Muslims see the internal problems in their book To argue from the Qur´an (only if you know it very well!) To use as a bridge to the Bible by using common stories from it But: the Qur´an has no authority for Christians. No need to use the Qur´an to prove the Bible!
