The Three Abrahamic Testaments: How the Torah, Gospels, and Qur'an Hold the Keys for Healing Our Fears (Islamic Encounter Series) - Softcover
Synopsis
The question remains: Why can’t we all just get along? Violence pours into our lives everyday through the media from around the world and in our neighborhoods. Religion, which should be a source of peace, is often right at the center of this violence. And the three Abrahamic faiths of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are engaged in complex relations of reciprocity and recrimination.
In this volatile climate, a Muslim doctor, Ejaz Naqvi, writes as a champion for seeing the Three Testaments―the Torah, the New Testament, and the Qur’an―as sources of peace for all humanity. A healer by profession, Dr. Naqvi shows how the Three Abrahamic Testaments share major values and beliefs (oneness of God, the golden rule) while not diminishing differences between the three faiths. His message is simple: You don’t have to be wrong form me to right.
