Once again the sons of Ishmael have struck terror into the hearts of the Anglo-Saxon world. On the bright and beautiful morning of September 11, 2001, nineteen Muslim hijackers, all foreign nationals, without warning or provocation, commandeered four American passenger jets with women and children aboard, headed to West Coast destinations. Three of these four jetliners were turned into guided missiles that left almost 3,000 American civilians dead, 15,000 orphan children, one hundred billion in property damage, and an estimated one trillion in business losses. The number of dead and property loses far exceeded any event to ever transpire on the soil of the United States of America. This 9/11 event has caused the whole world to carefully examine the Muslim world, and they have correctly identified the sons of Ishmael as the nineteen hijackers born in Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Now that the whole world knows who Ishmael is, the time has come for the world to identify Isaac. If the sons of Ishmael, originating with Father Abraham, can be identified, why not the millions descended from Abraham through Isaac as well? In the pages of this book you will not only examine the age old rivalry between Ishmael and Isaac, but more important, you will discover the identification of both of these peoples in modern history. The incredible story of Isaac vs. Ishmael will transform your understanding of the Bible and the front page of your hometown newspaper.

"This collection will be welcomed by anyone working on the interactions of the Muslim and Christian worlds in the Middle Ages--and the more casual reader will be struck by the persistence of stereotypes on both sides of the divide."--Medium Aevum LXXIX "The essays explore what, from the ninth to the fourteenth century, Western Christian clerks and kings, monks and abbots, friars and bishops, and scholars and poets wrote about Muslims and Islam. . . . Tolan's book is among the best in the field."--Journal of Religion "Considers such examples as portrayals of Muhammad in thirteenth-century Spain, Saladin in the medieval European imagination, and Saracen philosophers who secretly deride Islam. . . . Tolan is an engaging writer, accessible to the general as well as the scholarly reader."--Book News "Tolan has a talent for unraveling often tangled threads and subplots in a complex and intriguing story."--Religion and the Arts "Tolan's writing distinguishes itself by being insightful, nuanced, and magnificently lucid as well as highly accessible. Certain chapters will particularly enthrall: the chapter on Saladin will be one favorite; the chapter on the floating coffin of prophet Muhammad--a rhetorical masterpiece--will delight and fascinate. Every chapter is illuminating."--Geraldine Heng, University of Texas The Bible and the Qur'ân agree that the Arabs were the descendants of Ishmael, son of Abraham and Hagar. To many medieval Christians, the description of Ishmael in Genesis ("a wild man; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him") was a prophecy of the violence and enmity between Ishmael's progeny and the Christians--spiritual descendants of his half-brother Isaac. John Tolan, one of the world's foremost authorities on early Christian/Muslim interactions, offers ten essays that explore the history of conflict and convergence between Latin Christendom and the Arab Muslim world during the Middle Ages, deepening our understanding of the roots of current stereotypes of Muslims and Arabs in Western Culture. John V. Tolan, professor of history at the University of Nantes, is the author of numerous articles and books, including the acclaimed Saracens: Islam in the Medieval European Imagination.

Excerpt from An Examination of the Claims of Ishmael as Viewed by Muhammadans: Being the First Chapter of Section I. Of Studies in Islam The reason for writing this book needs to be stated. - It might well be asked in reference to it - What is the use of crushing dead flies? And, in truth, the religion of Muhammad has no better basis now than it had when its founder was alive to foster its early struggles. The light of history and the march of intellect have not improved its position in the judgment of the dispassionate seeker after a religion. But there are many scores of millions of our cotemporaries who are not able to think thus; and who accept this weird decoction of deism and idolatry, of truth and fable, as a veritable Revelation from 'the Father of Lights' for their guidance to heaven. It is among these that the lot of the missionary is cast; and it is in the hope of making him acquainted, in some measure at least, with the nature of the situation, that I have ventured to commend to his study, at some early period in his career, the pages which follow. The difficulty of the task assumed by the evangelist who seeks the salvation of Muhammadans in any portion of the world, is so generally admitted as to have become almost proverbial. But the difficulty is, in truth, more imaginary than real. It does not arise from the logical strength of the Islamic position, but from its weakness. It is always easier to deal with intelligence than with ignorance, and with avowed unrest than with self-contentment. 'They that are whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.' The nature of the difficulty is well exemplified by the respective theological positions of the Muhammadan and the Hindu. In regard to his religion, the latter is a born philosopher - exceptions aside - and the former is by all reasonable men understood to be a born fanatic. It is impossible to give thoughtful attention to the religious system of the Hindu, without feeling that the men who made it in the first instance were earnest, great, and wise. But the study of the religious system of the Muhammadan awakens no such sentiment. Let but the missionary be possessed of the necessary information, and of skill in the use of it, and the Muhammadan, however learned he may be, is at the end of his tether in no time: but the Hindu, misguided though he is, can give a reason for the hope that is in him. A genuine Hindu philosopher, put on his defence, is no mean antagonist; but the Muhammadan, if not on the offensive, is nowhere. When he has to assume the defence of his religion, he is like a bull at bay: no position is too irrational for him, no dogma too self-contradictory, no stratagem too contemptible. Evangelists, at the beginning of their experience, are apt to be thrown off their guard by the evasive and unprincipled tactics of the Muhammadan opponent of Christianity. Studies of Islam, of which this is the first instalment, is designed to meet what the writer has himself felt to be a want at that stage. The present imperfect Treatise is offered to the young missionary as a help to the apprehension of the bearings of a fundamental question. The dogma of which it treats - that Ishmael, and not Isaac, was 'the Child of Promise' - lies at the root of Islam. The point is so neatly put by Palgrave in his Article on Arabia in the latest Edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica that we can hardly do better than cite his remarks here.

An inquiry into the religious environment of the person Muslims hail as the "Envoy of God" and an attempt to trace his progress along the path from paganism to that distinctive form of monotheism called Islam.

The term “Abrahamic religions” has gained considerable currency in both scholarly and ecumenical circles as a way of referring to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. In The Family of Abraham, Carol Bakhos steps back from this convention to ask a frequently overlooked question: What, in fact, is Abrahamic about these three faiths? Exploring diverse stories and interpretations relating to the portrayal of Abraham, she reveals how he is venerated in these different scriptural traditions and how scriptural narratives have been pressed into service for nonreligious purposes. Grounding her study in a close examination of ancient Jewish textual practices, primarily midrash, as well as medieval Muslim Stories of the Prophets and the writings of the early Church Fathers, Bakhos demonstrates that ancient and early-medieval readers often embellished the image of Abraham and his family—Sarah, Hagar, Ishmael, and Isaac. Her analysis dismantles pernicious misrepresentations of Abraham’s firstborn son, Ishmael, and provocatively challenges contemporary references to Judaism and Islam as sibling religions. As Bakhos points out, an uncritical adoption of the term “Abrahamic religions” not only blinds us to the diverse interpretations and traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam but also artificially separates these faiths from their historical contexts. In correcting mistaken assumptions about the narrative and theological significance of Abraham, The Family of Abraham sheds new light on key figures of three world religions.
