  For anyone with an interest in the
early history of Islam, this erudite anthology will prove to be informative and enlightening.
  
 
Scholars have long known that the text of the Koran shows evidence of many influences from religious sources outside
Islam. For example, stories in the Koran about Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and other characters from the Bible obviously come
from the Jewish Torah and the Christian Gospels. But there is also evidence of borrowing in the Koran from more obscure
literature.
  In this anthology, the acclaimed critic of Islam Ibn Warraq has assembled scholarly articles that
delve into these unusual, little-known sources. The contributors examine the connections between pre-Islamic poetry and
the text of the Koran; and they explore similarities between various Muslim doctrines and ideas found in the writings of
the Ebionites, a Jewish Christian sect that existed from the second to the fourth centuries. Also considered is the
influence of Coptic Christian literature on the writing of the traditional biography of Muhammad.
  
  
  
  Reviews
  “With this anthology, Ibn Warraq makes accessible to the public a
collection of classic and modern articles—many of which have not previously been available in English—that
examine Koranic source materials. This volume renders a great service to Islamic studies today.”
  —Pierre Larcher, professor of Arabic linguistics, Aix-Marseille University
 

  “Ibn Warraq’s anthologies have helped me and many of my colleagues considerably in our work. They
have helped advance Koranic Studies for the last fifteen years, and are indispensable research tools for a new
generation of scholars. Warraq’s diligence has resulted in the recovery of the works of the great nineteenth- and
early-twentieth-century Semiticists and Arabists—especially German and French, almost forgotten, and certainly
neglected. His probing questions and general skepticism of sources expressed in his lengthy introductions are worth
pondering, and should help refine our methodological principles.”
  —Christoph Luxenberg, author of The Syro-Aramaic Reading of the Koran

  Ibn
Warraq's latest book is divided into three parts that contains essays and articles by Scholars (from the 19th ,20th ,
and 21st century) that discusses the origins of the Koran and the Islamic stories.
  The first part , which makes
up a large portion of the book, is dedicated to examine the pre-Islamic poetry of Arabia and their influence on the
Koran; in particular the influence of the monotheistic poet Umayya Ibn Abi Al Salt's poems. The arguments of the essays
are that Abi Al Salts's poems were one of the few pre-islamic poems that are authentic and could be a source of the
Koran.
  The second part's essays shed light on the Biblical and Jewish legends that influenced the Koran and the
Sira (the biography of Muhammad). For instance , one article shows how the story of the battle of Badr was composed in
the light of an old testament story.
  Finally, essays are provided that explain how the Sira itself was influenced
by other materials. For instance, the Sira contain stories that were drawn on the Coptic fathers' tales thus proving the
amount of legend that entered the Biography of Muhammad.
  In short, an important book
for specialist in the field of the Islamic studies.
