Judaism, Christianity and Islam: An Introduction to Monotheism shows how a shared monotheistic legacy frames and helps explain the commonalities and disagreements among Judaism, Christianity and Islam and their significant denominations in the world today.

The Purest Monotheism
Author: Eeshat Ansari
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780998665061
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Wisdom, Justice, and Unconditional Love ¿These days, Muslims are facing all kinds of problems: persecution by different governments, violence among Muslim sects, women's suppression, mass migration, and more. Many Muslims have contradictory behavior: they reject modern industrialization and education but depend on modern conveniences. Even the purity of Islamic monotheism itself is at stake. Guided by the wisdom of the Quran, this book defines many contemporary problems faced by Muslims and provides solutions. For example, the Quran strongly condemns zulm (oppression) and uses the word zulm a whopping 291 times to discourage it. So, on what grounds, can any Muslim support various oppressions, like preventing women from acquiring education and employment? This book also discusses:¿How to peacefully end radical Islamic violence.¿How Muslim men and women can ideologically respond to oppression by fellow Muslims.¿How to bring peace between Muslims sects.¿Without calling anyone kafir, how to peacefully preserve the purity of Islamic monotheism.Sufi literature, accumulated over centuries, proves that loving Allah is the most satisfying spiritual experience. The book describes how to unconditionally love Allah and how to unconditionally love yourself. Islam puts overwhelming emphasis on love and justice. Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) achieved the first major peaceful transfer of power in history. This was when he took over as the head of state of Medina, even though it was a multi-religious society. On another occasion, instead of waging violent jihad, he proposed the Treaty of Hudaybia and made peace with the opponents. The unique concept of Islamic monotheism also solves philosophical puzzles like the free will-predestination paradox and the watchmaker analogy.

Monotheism and Its Complexities
Author: Lucinda Mosher
Publisher: Georgetown University Press
ISBN: 162616584X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Conventional wisdom would have it that believing in one God is straightforward; that Muslims are expert at monotheism, but that Christians complicate it, weaken it, or perhaps even abandon it altogether by speaking of the Trinity. In this book, Muslim and Christian scholars challenge that opinion. Examining together scripture texts and theological reflections from both traditions, they show that the oneness of God is taken as axiomatic in both, and also that affirming God's unity has raised complex theological questions for both. The two faiths are not identical, but what divides them is not the number of gods they believe in. The latest volume of proceedings of The Building Bridges Seminar—a gathering of scholar-practitioners of Islam and Christianity that meets annually for the purpose of deep study of scripture and other texts carefully selected for their pertinence to the year’s chosen theme—this book begins with a retrospective on the seminar’s first fifteen years and concludes with an account of deliberations and discussions among participants, thereby providing insight into the model of vigorous and respectful dialogue that characterizes this initiative. Contributors include Richard Bauckham, Sidney Griffith, Christoph Schwöbel, Janet Soskice, Asma Afsaruddin, Maria Dakake, Martin Nguyen, and Sajjad Rizvi. To encourage further dialogical study, the volume includes those scripture passages and other texts on which their essays comment. A unique resource for scholars, students, and professors of Christianity and Islam.

Monotheism and Forgiveness
Author: S. Mark Heim
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108660487
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 131
Book Description
Forgiveness is a hallmark teaching within monotheistic religions. This Element introduces the topic in three ways. First, it considers the extent to which forgiveness is specific to or constituted by monotheistic beliefs, by a comparison with analogous teaching and practice in Buddhism. Second, the most extensive section explores the grammar of forgiveness shared across the Abrahamic traditions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam – elements of repentance, intercession, and eschatological deferral. This section identifies some of the divergent tendencies or emphases on this topic among those traditions. A third section addresses the role of forgiveness and monotheistic religions in human cultural evolution and the emergence of eusociality. The aim is for the reader to gain an introductory view of monotheism and forgiveness from a comparative religious example, from an internal examination of Abrahamic traditions, and from a developmental, secular perspective.
