Too often we are tempted into thinking how wrong other people's religions and scriptures are, rather than focusing on what's right about our own. We act like some of our politicians during election campaigns rather than following the teachings of our own holy books. Breaking the trend, author Dr. Ejaz Naqvi provides an objective, and nonpolemical, topic-by-topic review of the two most read books in the world-the Holy Bible and the Holy Quran. The Quran: With or Against the Bible? addresses the key themes of the Quran and answers commonly asked questions in search of finding common ground.
Do the Quran and the Bible send conflicting messages to their followers? Is the "God of the Quran" different from the "God of the Bible"? What is the Quranic view of the prophets, especially Moses and Jesus? What does the Quran teach about interfaith relations? Do the Quran and the Bible promote peace and harmony or do they promote violence? How does the Quran compare to the Bible on important themes like worshipping God, the prophets, human rights, moral values, and fighting for justice and human dignity? Do the Quran and the Bible render women as second-class citizens?
Dispelling major myths, The Quran: With or Against the Bible? systematically analyzes and compares the similarities in the paths of guidance the two scriptures have bestowed upon mankind.

About the Author:
Ejaz Naqvi, MD is a past president of  his Islamic center in San Francisco East Bay Area and has been actively involved in many other local Islamic centers in various capacities. He serves on the executive board of the Interfaith Council of Contra Costa County, California and is actively engaged in interfaith work. Dr Naqvi is on the advisory board of Abrahamic Alliance International, an interfaith organization whose purpose is to unite Jews, Christians and Muslims for active peace building and the relief of extreme poverty through educational empowerment and compassionate community service. He also serves on the Board of Directors of Islamic Scholarship Fund, a non-profit organization that aims to promote engagement of American Muslim students in mainstream through educational scholarships and mentorship programs. Dr. Ejaz Naqvi is the host of a radio talk show titled " Frank Talk with Dr. Ejaz- The Forum for Civil dialogue on Religion and Wellness" on Toginet Radio- an Internet radio station.
A practicing physician and a  "born-again Muslim" after reading the Quranic translation for the first time in its entirety about two decades ago, he has since then pondered over the verses of the Quran and discovered that many of its teachings remain arcane. Eager and in search of finding the common grounds, his subsequent study of the Quran and the Bible has led him to finding significant similarities in the teachings of the Scriptures, which he shares in this book.
Review:
"This is not just a candid and thought-provoking review of major topics in both the Bible and the Quran, but also a much-needed corrective. Reza Aslan. NY Times #1 bestselling Author of Zealot and No god but God"A beautiful rendering of the beliefs that unite the Abrahamic religions, It offers an understanding of Islam, Christianity and Judaism individually and in relation to each other. A work of scholarship, in-depth in its review; it challenges the mind, leaving the reader to draw its own conclusions."Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. Chairman, The Cordoba Initiative, Author of Moving the Mountain.

"This book will become a primary tool for interfaith understanding through scriptural reasoning and the comparative study of religious text."   Rabbi Firestone. Prof. of Medieval Judaism and Islam, Hebrew Union College, Los Angeles " Dr Naqvi's pages help us appreciate the harmony and the differences we share."Michael Wolfe. Film Producer and Author of Taking Back Islam and One Thousand Roads to Mecca
