MOSES AND PHARAOH
IN THE BIBLE, QUR'AN AND HISTORY |
| Maurice
Bucaille |
|
246 pages |
| The
holy scriptures of the three Abrahamic religions share some of the main
aspects of historical events which happened after Prophet Abraham. One topic
which reveals many such shared aspects is the story of Moses who rose up
against the despotic Pharaoh. The events during the period are important
to the Muslims, Jews and Christians, and in many cases form the basis of
the history and rituals of the three religions. This work is a comparative
study of the Biblical and Qur'anic narrations of the story of Moses and
Pharaoh. |

AND MUHAMMAD IS HIS MESSENGER |
| Annemarie
Schimmel |
|
392 pages |
| In
order to understand Muslim piety it is necessary to take into account the
long history of the veneration of Muhammad. Schimmel discusses aspects of
his life, birth, marriage, miracles, and heavenly journey, all of which
became subjects for religious devotions. By using poetic texts and artistic
expressions and by examining daily Muslim religious practices, Schimmel
shows us the gentler side of Islamic religious culture, providing a much-needed
understanding of religion as it is experienced and practiced in the Islamic
world. |
