This book is the first of two volumes that aim to produce something
not previously attempted: a synthetic history of Muslim responses
to the Bible, stretching from the rise of Islam to the present day.
It combines scholarship with a genuine narrative, so as to tell the
story of Muslim engagement with the Bible. Covering Sunni, Imami
Shi'i and Isma'ili perspectives, this study will offer a scholarly
overview of three areas of Muslim response, namely ideas of
corruption, use of the Biblical text, and abrogation of the text.
For each period of history, the important figures and dominant
trends, along with exceptions, are identified. The interplay
between using and criticising the Bible is explored, as well as how
the respective emphasis on these two approaches rises and falls in
different periods and locations. The study critically engages with
existing scholarship, scrutinizing received views on the subject,
and shedding light on an important area of interfaith concern.
