Description

Explore the deep connections between Islamic tradition and ancient Mediterranean literature with Moses in the Qur'an and Islamic Exegesis. This scholarly work from the Routledge Studies in the Qur'an series examines how Muslim scholars connect the understanding of Moses to a wide range of historical texts. By relating the Qur'anic narrative to the Epic of Gilgamesh, Alexander Romances, Aramaic Targums, and Rabbinic Bible exegesis, this book provides a detailed look at how Muslim scholars use allusions to the Bible and Jewish tradition to establish their own religious authority. Through a close study of Qur'an 18:60-82, the text explains how Muslim exegetes engage with Biblical theology by interpreting the history of the ancient Israelites, their prophets, and the Torah. This research offers a new perspective on the history of religious relations by looking at how a scripture shared with Jews and Christians is interpreted within the Islamic tradition. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in comparative religion, Islamic studies, and the historical context of the Qur'an.
