چکیده:
Any student of comparative religion will notice - and seek to identify as well - the points of similarity and difference between various religions. One might even claim that the discipline of “influence studies” has its roots in these discussions of comparison and contrast. However, these discussions persistently fail to address the nuances of particular faiths. Here, I intend to shed some light on the similarities and dissimilarities among religions. The point of departure and the framework for the study will be Islam, with a relatively strong focus on Judaism and Christianity

2 Following this, Muslim exegetes of the Qur‘an have interpreted the epithet ―the condemned‖ (1:6) to refer to Jews and ―those who have gone astray‖ (1:6) to signify Christians, although both attributes could equally have referred to any of the two groups.
Muslims, in turn, find the predictions of the coming of the Prophet Muhammad (s) in their interpretations of the Old and New Testaments, which the Jews and Christians obviously do not consider to be valid.
Mysticism and Sufism As mentioned above, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam believe in the finality of their respective religions.
These books, such as the Vedas, Tripitaka, Avesta, Hebrew Bible, New Testament, and the Qur‘an are considered to be sacred by the followers of each respective religion.
Clearly, the followers of Judaism, Christianity, and other religions have received moral messages from their own sacred texts, just as Muslims have.
Furthermore, the Qur‘an is the basis for Islam, while the Gospels and other books of the New Testament were composed several decades after the emergence of Christianity, and this religion existed without these books.
This means that, according to Islamic belief, the tawrāh and injīl which God revealed to Moses and Jesus have been altered, resulting in the omission of references to Prophet Muhammad (s) and the addition of anthropomorphic images.
The word of God can thus mean the Qur‘an, which the Jews heard but subsequently related to others in an altered way in order to reduce its validity.
