Christianity and the Qur'an: The Rise of Islam in Christian Arabia - by Gabriel Said Reynolds

Reynolds explores how the Qur’an emerged in a late antique Arabian world shaped by Christian thought, debate, and scripture. He argues that many Qur’anic passages engage directly with Christian teachings, communities, and controversies rather than presenting Islam as an isolated revelation. The book examines Qur’anic references to Jesus, Mary, the Trinity, and biblical narratives, showing how these often respond to Christian doctrines or reinterpret them.
