Discussions / Bible, the Book in the Qur'an?

« on: December 26, 2013, 05:40:42 AM »

As-salaamun Alaikum brother:

I've been reading some commentaries for awhile and have not stumbled any article where it is clearly defined what the bible actually is in light of the Holy Qur'an. There is no mention of "bible" in Holy Qur'an. While the Holy Qur'an mentioned "of the book", it may refer to the Torah, Psalm and Gospel which was clearly mentioned in some ayats. It is claimed that the bible has, in it, the Torah, Psalm and Gospel but I feel that this is not what the Holy Qur'an is referring to.

The bible has two major versions, not in terms of translations, but of doctrines. The Roman/Orthodox Catholic Churches have 72/73 books while the Protestant Churches have about 66 books for their bibles. I also think that the bible today in general is similar to a ahadith only, a narrative of third person. Please share your opinion in regards to my common understanding.


Sincerely,

As- Salaamun alaikum. My name is Salahuddin. I accepted the Oneness of God (swt) and Prophethood of Muhammad (pbuh) over three years ago. I was a Roman Catholic. l reverted to Islam, the very least of my choice, in fact not even included any of many religions that I could think of.

Before I joined this forum or site, I made some readings here and found and learned so much. A few of it are already been what I thought it was like the pork stuff. Anyway bear with me as I have tons of questions for you here:-) Just kidding, I guess reading all the posts here will keep me quite busy! Thank you!
