What Did Jesus Really Say?
By writing the book "What Did Jesus Really Say?", Misha'al Ibn Abdullah Al-Kadhi has done Christians the favor of producing a compendium summarizing most Islamic arguments against Christianity and the Bible. This now presents the opportunity to systematically rebut the current Islamic apologetics/propaganda in one place by answering his claims section by section. Obviously, it will take some time to complete this task since the book is over 600 pages long. But when many share in the effort, this is indeed managable and of lasting value. Al-Kadhi's book is available on the web in HTML format: First Edition, Second Edition, and can also be downloaded in MS Word format.
[Several years later: I discover that this book has now spread far and wide. It is offered with ever more fancy design (though anonymized, since the name of the author is nowhere to be found there) like in this page and particularly the site http://www.plaintruth.org/, and is linked on literally hundreds of Islamic web sites, -- none of which links back to our response -- but to this day, over 4 years after challenging the author to openly debate his claims, we have not received any response from him or any Muslim site who would engage in discussing our rebuttals.]
Not all chapters below have the same quality of response. They are written by many different people in different styles. Some are simple Christians who give common sense answers, others have scholarly credentials and their responses might take more effort to read and understand. Some might even still contain some (theological or other) errors or not very helpful answers. That is where our Christian readers come in. This is not a static site. Every suggestion for improvement will be gratefully received and if possible integrated. Feel free to make corrections and submit improved versions for any of the sections, whether just for a sentence, a paragraph or a completely rewritten article on any of the sections below, if you feel that you have a stronger case or a way of expressing it more clearly. The body of Christ needs to work together on this. It is too large for one person. For some issues, alternative answers might be warranted. We can present them both.
So that you don't have to wait too long until there are full direct answers to all sections, we provide links to pages which deal with topics discussed in this chapter and are relevant to the issue but might not be direct responses yet. Most of the issues have been discussed many times and there is no need to rewrite it every time a Muslims formulates things a little bit differently. Also, these links to relevant material will help you volunteers to formulate direct rebuttals to Mr. Al-Kadhi.
