If I told you of a book that included the following topics, would you be interested?
You are interested, aren't you, you skeptics and revelation-scoffers. Well, let me not tantalize you cruelly. The book exists! In fact, it's a foundational text in the world of Muslim apologetics.
The six-volume Izhar ul-Haqq, Rahmatullah Kairanawi's magnum opus, was written (in Arabic, naturally) in 1864. Christine Schirrmacher describes the work thusly:
- "Contradictions and Errors in the Biblical Text"
- "Distortion and Abrogation in the Bible:
- "Refutation of Misleading Protestant Statements Regarding the Authenticity of the Bible"
