Drawing on tools from linguistics and theology, this book argues that Biblical reflexes in the Qur’an are not inherited, but repurposed to serve the Qur’an’s own distinctive theological vision.

This path-breaking book sets aside the traditional story of the life of Muhammad, and inquires into the internal history of the Qur''an itself. Drawing on fresh insights from linguistics and theology, Durie puts forward a new and very different explanation for the “Mecca-Medina” division, attributing it to a theological crisis which arose in the Qur’anic community. Through careful investigation of theologically charged topics such as prophecy, Satan, sin, the oneness of God, covenant, warfare, divine presence, and holiness, Durie questions whether the Qur’an and Bible really do share a deeper connection. He invites the reader to set aside the frames through which the Qur’an has been viewed in the past, whether Biblical or Islamic, and invites us to attend to the Qur’an’s distinctive and unique theological vision, in its own terms.
