Product Description
First published in 1977, Muhammad 'Ata ur-Rahim's classic text looks at Jesus as a prophet teaching the Unity of God, and the historical collapse of Christianity as it abandoned his teaching. Now revised by coauthor Ahmad Thomson, the book sketches the dramatic picture of the original followers of Jesus who affirmed Unity, showing how "Christianity" became the fiction that replaced their truth. A wide-ranging study that covers the Gospel of Barnabas, the Gospel of Hermes, the shepherd, early and later Unitarian Christians, and Jesus in the gospels and in the Qur'an and hadith, Jesus: Prophet of Islam argues persuasively that the idea of Jesus as part of a trinity was a Greek pagan concept adopted by early Christian missionaries to gain converts among the Greeks, and did not become a widely accepted Christian doctrine until after the Council of Nicea in 325 A.D.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: Jesus: Prophet of Islam (Hardcover)
after many years of studying christianity, i feel that this book is very accurate and well researched. it is in agreement with nearly all aspects of christian academia and basically sums up the evolution of christianity using well documented facts and easy to follow explanations. as a person who has spent a considerable amount of time in the field of christian and islamic study, i must say that the author has summed so many years of my research in this excellent book. i recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning basic facts about the evolution of christianity and how it affected those who came in contact with it. jazakam Allahu khair brother rahim for your dedication.
