101 Ways Islam Gives Love to the Bible

Book excerpt: Love in the Quran is bountiful for the Bible followers. Love is provided to the Bible on assorted levels, from narrations on Adam to Jesus Christ. Love brings people together. In a beautiful and melodious method, the Quran also brings harmony between Jews and Christians. Enjoining the scriptures into one, the Quran mediates, reconciles, and unites. Love comes from mutual understanding and coherent communication. The Quran preserved in its original language and version for nearly 1,400 years, has been a clear untainted light of guidance, removing immoral laws and dispelling evil traditions. Numerous curses and questionable killings have been lifted and revealed. According to the Bible, at the final moments of Jesus Christ, despite repeated pleas by the Messiah, God had forsaken Jesus, abandoning Jesus at his time of need: “At about three in the afternoon Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" that is, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" (Matthew 27:46) Upon a closer examination, we discover that God throughout the Bible has forsaken humans, while the Quran clarifies the Bible accounts to show how God loves humans, thus providing love to the Bible. While God does forsake evil doers, it is all too evident in the Bible that the righteous are also forsaken. This study will show the ways the Bible forsakes humans compared to the relevant verses in the Quran on how humans are loved.
