Jesus in the Qur'an

Front Cover
Oneworld Publications, May 1, 2013 - Religion - 190 pages
Until recent times Islam’s holy book has not been widely accessible to the Christian world, and consequently teachings about Jesus have received little attention. In Jesus in the Qur’an, written for both Christians and Muslims, for specialists as well as general readers, Parrinder offers a study of Qur’anic teachings about the birth, life, work, death and resurrection of Jesus. Parrinder explores all ninety-three verses in the Qur’an in which Jesus is mentioned, setting them in the context of the work as a whole and drawing parallels with the Christian gospels, wherever possible.
