Engaging with Scholars of Different Religions
The Quran engages with the scholars of different religions such as Judaism and Christianity, rather than targeting the least knowledgeable individuals for conversion. It addresses the audience of the Quraysh, Israelites, and Christians by speaking to the rabbis, ministers, and qualified representatives of these faiths. This approach is considered revolutionary as it challenges the scholars of Judaism and Christianity, starting a dialogue with the most knowledgeable members of each religion. This engagement is evident in chapters like Sotul-Bakara and Al-Ameran, where the Quran discusses Allah's relationship with the Israelites and Christians after the arrival of Prophet Muhammad. Despite not focusing on detailed lectures about Jesus, the Quran provides important insights from both Christian and Jewish perspectives.
