The Religion of Abraham and the State of Israel
A view from the Qur'an of Abraham's covenant and of the modern state that claims it.
Abraham’s covenant is claimed by three religions, and Hosein argues that the claim is the heart of the modern conflict over the Holy Land. He reads the Qur’an’s account of Abraham and of the Children of Israel, sets it against the theological case made for the modern state of Israel, and concludes that the two cannot be reconciled. It is among his most widely read and most contested books.
