1933 THE JEWISH FOUNDATION OF ISLAM Book Mohammed Quran Arab History Biblical164pp
The Jewish Foundation of Islam is a scholarly work by Charles Cutler Torrey, Professor of Semitic Languages at Yale University, published in 1933 by the Jewish Institute of Religion Press.
The book examines the historical and textual relationship between Judaism and early Islam, arguing that many core ideas, narratives, and legal concepts in the Qur’an were influenced by Jewish biblical and rabbinic traditions. Drawing on philological and comparative religious analysis, Torrey explores the Jewish background of Islamic theology, prophecy, and monotheism.
Written as part of the Hilda Stich Stroock Lectures, this work represents an important example of early 20th-century Western academic scholarship on Islam and the Semitic religions, reflecting contemporary historical-critical approaches to religious origins.
