passing over a lot. A Light has come to you from God and a Clear
Book. (Koran, 5:15)
The fact that the Koran was sent to confirm the Torah and the
Gospel is expressed as follows:
Say, "Anyone who is the enemy of Gabriel should know that it
was he who brought it down upon your heart, by God’s authori-
ty, confirming what came before, and as guidance and good news
for the believers." (Koran, 2:97)
He has sent down the Book to you with truth, confirming what
was there before it. And He sent down the Torah and the Gospel.
(Koran, 3:3)
These verses make it clear that the Koran was sent down to con-
firm Jews’ and Christians’ own books and to show them what is right
and wrong, a book in which they can find the most perfect clarification
of everything. Another verse of the Koran reveals how Jews and Chris-
tians must also obey the Koran:
You who have been given the Book [Jews and Christians]! Have
faith in what We have sent down confirming what is with you
[the Torah and the Gospel], before We obliterate faces, turning
them inside out, or We curse you as We cursed the Companions
of the Sabbath. God’s command is always carried out. (Koran,
4:47)
Another verse is addressed to the People of Book who insist on
adhering to their own books despite being invited to obey the Koran,
and they are reminded that the Koran was sent down to confirm their
own scriptures:
When they are told, "Have faith in what God has sent down," they
say, "Our faith is in what was sent down to us," and they reject
anything beyond that, even though it [the Koran] is the truth, con-
firming what they have... (Koran, 2:91)
