Jesus Prophet of Islam Signed Copy

This revised edition of Jesus: A Prophet of Islam comes some 18 years after the first edition was published, and 17 years after its principal co-author Muhammad 'Ataa'-ur-Raheem passed away in London, after travelling half way around the world to complete this book that he had always longed to write.

Although the first edition has never been out of print, the book's co-author, Ahmad Thomson, became increasingly aware that there was room for improvement in a revised edition, especially as regards to integrating new material into the text which was not so readily available when the two authors first commenced work on the book together decades ago. Although some of the original material has been reconstructed, very little of it has been removed.

The main additions in this revised edition centre around:

1. The historical study of how the split between the original Semitic Unitarian followers of Jesus and the European Trinitarian followers of Paul steadily developed until it became irreversible.
2. A closer study of the authenticity, accuracy and reliability of the texts on which current editions of the Bible are based, including a careful scrutiny of the arguments for and against the current editions of the Gospel of Barnabas.
3. The expansion of the last two chapters which explore what the Hadeeth and Qur'aan have to say about Jesus, not only as regards to his original mission, but also with reference to his second coming - which many people believe to be imminent, although only God knows when it will actually occur.

It is hoped that this revised edition will not only be more fascinating, but also more accessible than the first edition, and that in presenting virtually all the various perspectives from which Jesus has been regarded during the last two millennia - including those of the Atheists, the Jews, the Unitarian Christians, the Trinitarian Christians and the Muslims - the reader will be better able to judge which are nearest to the truth.
