Add other Abrahamic religions
[edit ]This article needs sections on Samaritans, Druze, Mandaeans, and Bahai. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A06:C701:409A:5200:2544:B95F:7237:B9BB (talk) 12:44, 9 July 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
Anti-Jewish and Anti-Christian but Islamaphilic
[edit ]I read this article and it reads like a Islamic definition of the Abrahamic faiths. Natean (talk) 04:04, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Okay can you please provide any examples of alleged Anti-Judaism, anti-Christian, or Islamophobic?CycoMa1 (talk) 04:17, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- @Natean also can you provide any sources that say this article is all this stuff you’re claiming it is?CycoMa1 (talk) 04:41, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Yup, fundamentalist and very conservative Christians think that mainstream Bible scholarship would be Islamophilic. That's mainly because they didn't have read academic books about the Bible and religion. The mainstream Quran scholarship would be destructive to fundamentalist Islam, and generally speaking, the lives of mainstream scholars of the Quran are endangered by Islamist fanatics, who think the scholars spread the work of apostasy. It is unsafe to practice lower criticism or higher criticism in Islamic countries. Islamists go ballistic when scholars prove there are mistakes in the Quran. If you are a bibliolatrist, mainstream scholarship desecrates your holy book. tgeorgescu (talk) 07:08, 2 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- "That's mainly because they didn't have read academic books about the Bible and religion." Tgeorgescu, I don't think that fundamentalists have the literacy skills required to read books intended for an adult audience. In any case, why would we care what these reactionaries have to say about religious texts? Dimadick (talk) 12:04, 3 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- Because it is. Where is the link between Ishmael and mohamet? What evidence is there that Abraham built the kabba? There's almost no evidence for anything the Quran claims itself. 68.233.29.90 (talk) 20:00, 22 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
- We say that that's what Muslims believe. However, in mainstream history there is no evidence that people like Abraham and Ishmael ever existed. And that's a problem not just for Muslims, but for Jews and Christians as well. tgeorgescu (talk) 20:13, 22 June 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
"Tanakh" should be clarified
[edit ]In the Religions section, the Islam subsection discusses religious texts, including the article's first instance of "Tanakh". This means the Hebrew Bible, but it's not clear that they mean the same thing to an uneducated reader.
- Make it clear that "Tanakh" is the same as "Hebrew Bible" somewhere in the article
Sorry if I'm wrong or missed something important... I really don't know how to edit articles and doubt an anon like me can edit this one, but this was confusing as a reader! 66.227.176.131 (talk) 03:15, 26 July 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
Wording
[edit ]The "respectively" in the first sentence seems pointless. 2601:647:CE80:500:7C54:5A6A:F41C:1567 (talk) 18:10, 16 December 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
