Shared Prophets brings together, in one place, relevant revelations about the Biblical heroes, and the odd villain, whom Allah invited to strut their stuff on His stage, the Koran. Biblical Figures in the Koran is largely a subset of the much larger, exhaustive seminal guide to the Koran, Pain, Pleasure and Prejudice, which can be read on-line and also purchased as a book.

3:19 The [true] religion with Allah is Islam. Those who were given the Book (the Jews and Christians) did not disagree among themselves, except after certain knowledge came to them, out of envy among themselves. Whoever disbelieves in Allah’s Revelations will find Allah Swift in retribution!

2:113 The Jews say: “The Christians follow nothing [substantial]” and the Christians say: “The Jews follow nothing [substantial],” while both recite the Book. Thus say too, those who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection regarding what they differ on.

In the meantime

5:51 O believers, do not take the Jews and the Christians as friends; some of them are friends of each other. Whoever of you takes them as friends is surely one of them. Allah indeed does not guide the wrongdoers.
