This intense and carefully researched book deals with the question that is increasingly on the minds of many, "Is the Allah of the Qur'an one and the same as the LORD God of the Bible?" Although it may seem to some that this book is a response to the recent controversy at Wheaton College regarding what political science professor Larycia Hawkins stated in a Facebook page addressing a closely related question, "Do Muslims and Christians worship the same God," (http: //www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/12/christian-college-suspend-professor/421029/ ) in reality it was completed in December 2015 on the very eve of this controversy after a two year research effort. This coincidence, however, heightens the timeliness and underlines the importance of this issue. The book deals with this question using authoritative Islamic and Christian sources thus giving the reader a clear understanding of the Qur'anic Allah and the reasons he is not the same-or even similar- to the LORD God of the Bible. This book addresses the core differences, such that many will be enlightened and helped in understanding the issues objectively.

As old as the world is, we die young even if we live a long life. Some of the most brilliant minds over the years have seen life and its purpose as one and the same. Perhaps the purpose of life is only to live it and live it to its fullest, yet so often we miss out on the chance to fulfill our life's purpose in the end, whatever it may be, as we become stricken by tragedy and pain. The story always ends with the age-old enemy, death, winning - and we lose every time. Is this all there is to life, purpose, and the existence of human beings? - Buddha said, "Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it." - Confucius said, "When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it - this is knowledge." - Aristotle said "Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence." - The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for (Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov). All these men tried to sum up the meaning of life, the purpose of life, and ultimately the reason for our existence in a sentence or two. This book invites us to examine our beliefs and rationality. If we gain the whole world and lose our own life, what profit do we have? Is a life lived without a purpose even worth living? Would this not leave the world as if we never existed?

This most important book examines in depth and with a mastery of the basic documents, the crucial issues of our time. What are the sources of the enmity that drive and justify Jihad in all its forms? Will Judaism and Christianity survive when currently global Islam, supported by the universal Caliphate's Jihad against Israel enforces its 7th century claim to be the origin of these two faiths? This is the real meaning of the Jihad against Israel. With knowledge, skill and irrefutable scholarship, Al-Maqdisi & Solomon identify and explain the root cause of the Islamic denial of the Jewish and Christian Biblical history, identity and patrimony in the Holy Land. This masterpiece provides a mine of information on the Islamic challenge to Western survival, and should be read by everyone. Professor Bat Ye'or, Author Landmark works include "The Dhimmi: Jews and Christians under Islam," "Islam and Dhimmitude: Where Civilizations Collide," "Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis" Elias Al-Maqdisi & Sam Solomon's Al-Yahud: Eternal Islamic Enmity & the Jews represents another groundbreaking work from this prolific writing duo. Following Al-Maqdisi/Solomon's Al-Hijra: The Islamic Doctrine of Immigration, Al-Yahud uncovers and explains some of the deepest held Islamic doctrinal beliefs supporting the continuous Jihad against the one enemy of Islam that is never forgotten or forgiven-the Jew. In Al-Yahud, the authors literally uncover the root of the problem between the Jews and the Muslims, a problem that manifests itself in the current Middle East conflict, which is currently being framed as a classical land-for-peace issue. Not so, say Al-Maqdisi/Solomon-the problem is forever and will continue to haunt us as long as Muslims continue to believe in Muhammed's mission to retroactively supersede and claim the origins of Judeo-Christian Monotheism, then to "correct," and finally to complete the Jewish and Christian revelations.

In today's world of conflict and change, no one can escape the reality that Islam is spreading very fast. Since 9/11, the Muslim population has doubled in the United States of America. Muslims are building mosques and Islamic centers throughout the country. There is an increasing fear among Americans of the imminent threat of terrorism by Muslims in America. What does Islam teach about terrorism? What is Jihad? What does Islam teach about Christians and Jews? What are the basic beliefs of Muslims? Are all Muslims extremists? How about the ones living among us? Do Muslims hate non-Muslims (specifically Christians and Jews)? Is Islam a religion of peace? These and many other questions will be answered in this book. Understanding Islam is the only way to reach out to Muslims in America and worldwide. The Muslim Next Door, is a guide for churches and individuals to evangelize Muslims. A clear understanding of pure Islamic knowledge can make a difference in our relationships with Muslims in our neighborhoods.

In 2007 a consortium of Muslim clerics and scholars produced a document entitled A Common Word Between Us and You which was issued as an open letter to the leaders of the major Christian churches. This document was answered by another open letter from religious academics at the Yale Center for Faith and Culture. At first glance, the authors of both documents seem to be motivated by a desire to establish a dialogue between Christians and Muslims. Yet, is this really the case? There is an underlying assumption for both documents. This assumption is that since both are monotheistic religions then it may be asserted that both Christians and Muslims not only believe in only one God but they believe in the same God. Thus, although outwardly the two religions are very different, in fact they are essentially the same, or at least equivalent. Such teaching is commonly accepted in many religious circles today, even among some evangelical Christians. However, it is not a Biblical concept, nor is it consistent with the historic faith of the church. Furthermore, it is also is inconsistent with the Islamic faith as presented in both the Quran and Islamic traditional teaching. In this important book we are presented with a solid biblical understanding of the nature of God and His revealed truth. In addition, with many years experience and training in Islamic law and tradition, the authors expertly demonstrate the fallacies in the A Common Word from a Muslim worldview. Today, when Islam is making aggressive advances in much of the world, it is imperative that the church maintains the truths of the faith with greater zeal than ever before. This book is an invaluable tool to accomplish this very purpose.
