I would like to emphasize in this introduction that my purpose for this
study is not to denigrate Judaism or Christianity. As Muslims, we believe in the divine origins of both. No one can be a Muslim without believing in Moses and Jesus as great prophets of God.
My goal is only to vindicate Islam and pay a tribute, long overdue in the
West, to the final truthful Message from God to the human race. I would
also like to emphasize that I concerned myself only with Doctrine. That is,
my concern is, mainly, the position of women in the three religions as it
appears in their original sources not as practised by their millions of
followers in the world today.
Therefore, most of the evidence cited comes from the Quran, the sayings of
Prophet Muhammad, the Bible, the Talmud, and the sayings of some of the
most influential Church Fathers whose views have contributed
immeasurably to defining and shaping Christianity. This interest in the
sources relates to the fact that understanding a certain religion from the
attitudes and the behaviour of some of its nominal followers is misleading.
Many people confuse culture with religion, many others do not know what
their religious books are saying, and many others do not even care. Prepared by: Dr. Sherif Abdel Azim
