Contents Status of the Holy Land, Jerusalem, and the Temple Mount according to the Qu'ran and its exegetes -- The Bible and the Qur'an -- The Qur'an's approach to "The people of the Book" (Ahl al-Kitab).
Summary "The Qur'an, the Holy Scripture of the Muslims, also deals with the question of the status of Eretz Israel, the Land of Israel. Many of its exegetes, following in the tracks of Islam's holy book, have done so as well. Somewhat surprisingly, perhaps, these Islamic sources express an approach asserting that this land is promised exclusively to the People of Israel. This book explores these sources and discusses them in light of the recent developments."--Publishers website.
