Abstract

(First paragraph) Reynolds begins his sizable work entitled The Qurʾān and The Bible, which is apparently an output of significant long-term research, with preliminary remarks on the Old Testament´s inclusion in the Christian Bible by the Early Church fathers and makes a comparison with early and later Islamic approaches to the Bible. According to the author, in the beginning period of Islam, the Bible could theoretically have been considered an authoritative scripture, inferring from such verses as Q 10:94 and Q 5:47, but then falsification (taḥrīf) allegations against the Bible became the prevailing conception among Muslims in other verses such as Q 2:42, 59, 79; 3:71, 187; 4:46; 5:13; 7:162 (p. 1).
