The Muslim perception of Christianity and Christians is an issue of
longstanding debate among scholars of both Islam and Christianity.
In this book, Jane McAuliffe analyses a series of passages from the
Qur'an that make ostensibly positive remarks about Christians. She
conducts this analysis through a close examination of Muslim
exegesis of the Qur'an, spanning ten centuries of commentary. In
this effort to trace various interpretations of these passages, the
author attempts to determine whether these positive passages can
justifiably serve as proof-texts of Muslim tolerance of
Christianity. She finds that commentators have consistently
distinguished between the vast majority of Christians, who are
denounced for having turned from the true word of God, and a small
minority, who accepted the prophethood of Muhammed and are praised.
