Talk:The Bible in Islam

I probably shouldn't talk myself but I see this article as very POV. I fxed some of it. Just like someone else said about my Carlos Monzon article, I wont put it on deletion log because it contains a lot of information. But the article writer should read both the Koran and the Bible before writing about this, and then get all the facts, in a Neutral point of view way, not in a My POV way.

Otherwise, good job.

I'm surprised to see that claim about Moses's sister and Jesus's mother. Where does that come from? This is the first time I've read about it, and I'd like to study the source.

 * Supernatural Islamic experiences

This article does seem fairly POV, which may be due to the text coming from the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia -- perhaps some of the statements about misinformation, etc. should be dropped. Bcorr 20:20, 27 Sep 2003 (UTC)


 * It probably is POV. I have rewritten small sections of it here and there, others have done a little bit of NPOV'ing as well. More needs to be done. But the main points of any such discussion will be "politically incorrect" to most readers; almost every quote in Islamic literature about the Hebrew Bible or New Testament is fantastic and unrelated to what is actually in these books. For example, Muslims hold that Jews await the return of Ezra as the messiah. But...Jews have no such belief; they never did. RK 20:57, 27 Sep 2003 (UTC)

This article needs to quote specific surahs, with their references, in order to give the discussion a neutral balance.: Allah charges the Jewish people with "falsehood" (Sura 3:71) is an example of a statement that we readers can check for ourselves. No broader, and possibly NPOV conclusions or judgments need to be drawn. When the Qu'ran refers to the biblical traditions, what does it actually say? That's what this entry is really about.Wetman 11:57, 15 Jan 2004 (UTC)

- The artice is not at all desputed - as some of you have claimed. Unless you have better knowledge of Bible in Islam, you shouldn't comment. Thus I removed the line: "The neutrality of this article is disputed".

recent article on Similarities between the Bible and the Qur'an seems the same as the (intent of the) article The Bible in Islam
There is a new article on Similarities between the Bible and the Qur'an, how does it reconcile with this one The Bible in Islam? IZAK 21:57, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)

What the hell?
What is this article doing in an Encyclopedia? It clearly belongs in a polemic site like answering Islam or some other anti-Islamic site.
