However, what may come as a surprise is that similar inquiries are made about other religious scriptures such as…. The Quran, the holy book of Islam. I am thrilled to invite you to join us for a groundbreaking new online course called “The Bible and The Quran: Comparing Their Historical Problems.“ Course Overview: Embark on a groundbreaking exploration of the historical challenges nestled within two of the world’s most influential religious texts—the Bible and the Quran.

Explore the historical narratives of Jesus and Muhammad, actively navigating the intersections and differences between scholarly perspectives and religious interpretations. Additionally, you will explore sensitive issues surrounding the potential impact of scripture on violence and intolerance, while actively examining the application of historical and critical lenses to religious study.

Did the historical Muhammad really exist? • To what extent are acts of intolerance, hatred, and violence rooted in the Bible, and is the Bible itself to be blamed, in whole or in part, for perpetuating such behaviors? • Is there something unique or inherent to Islam – its scripture, its founding moment, and its historical experience – that predisposes it to hatred, intolerance, and violence Course Details: • Live Recording Dates: May 4th: Starts at 12pm EDT; May 5th: Starts at 1pm EDT.
