Description

โ€œA welcome expansion of the fragile territory known as common ground.โ€ โ€•The New York TimesWhen Reza Aslanโ€™s bestseller Zealot came out in 2013, there was criticism that he hadnโ€™t addressed his Muslim faith while writing the origin story of Christianity. In fact, Ross Douthat of The New York Times wrote that โ€œif Aslan had actually written in defense of the Islamic view of Jesus, that would have been something provocative and new.โ€Mustafa Akyolโ€™s The Islamic Jesus is that book.The Islamic Jesus reveals startling new truths about Islam in the context of the first Muslims and the early origins of Christianity. Muslims and the first Christiansโ€•the Jewish followers of Jesusโ€•saw Jesus as not divine but rather as a prophet and human Messiah and that salvation comes from faith and good works, not merely as faith, as Christians would later emphasize. What Akyol seeks to reveal are how these core beliefs of Jewish Christianity, which got lost in history as a heresy, emerged in a new religion born in 7th Arabia: Islam.Akyol exposes this extraordinary historical connection between Judaism, Jewish Christianity and Islamโ€•a major mystery unexplored by academia. From Jesusโ€™ Jewish followers to the Nazarenes and Ebionites to the Quโ€™ranโ€™s stories of Mary and Jesus, The Islamic Jesus will reveal links between religions that seem so contrary today. It will also call on Muslims to discover their own Jesus, at a time when they are troubled by their own Pharisees and Zealots.
