A study in the thought of the Abrahamic religions.
The image of the Torah in the Qur’an (1-10).
Hatem Babiker Mahel *
The discussion of the Qur’an that criticizes the Torah, is it a case of estrangement and rejection of all that came in the law (Sharia) in the sense of the existence of an omitted (correct) biblical text that is not circulated among the Jews, and an (incorrect) biblical text among the Jews? Here is a hypothesis that believes that a major forgery of the biblical text took place on the part of the Jews. Is this opinion what the Qur’anic text puts forward, or the interpretations of Muslim scholars throughout history?
These studies adopt the opinion that the critical opinions mentioned in the Torah in the Qur’an are considered a critical trend in the Jewish scholarly circles.
First: Jewish thought critical of the Torah.
There are questions raised by the Qur’an about the Torah in many places in its verses. Are these questions about the validity and credibility of the Torah in its understanding, application and interpretation? Stubborn facts confirm that the criticism raised by the Qur’an through its text agrees with the critical opinions expressed by Jeremiah and other prophets, as in (Jeremiah 8:8): (How do you say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is truly with us? It is to lie around it the lying pen of the scribes).
The critical approach that we find blatant in all parts of the book does not undoubtedly include the validity and credibility of the law (Sharia), but deals with interpretation, understanding, interpretation and application. What we would like to say is that the critical approach to understanding biblical texts is as old as the Talmud. The Talmud went in the same direction: (They wanted to hide and they did not hide). There is no serious, scrutinizing trend that says that there is a problem in the Torah in itself, but in the concepts and interpretation here is the home of the great battles.
What is proven is that the first five Holy Books of the Old Testament were written by Moses with inspiration from God, and the Prophet David wrote the Book of Psalms, and that Solomon the Prophet wrote the two books of the Song of Songs and the Ecclesiastes. . The Gemara discussed many controversial issues, aiming to develop and perfect the research.
