We believe that Allah revealed books to His messengers as proof against mankind and a guidance for the righteous workers. They purified and taught them wisdom by these books. We believe that Allah sent down a book with every messenger, because He says: "Indeed We sent down Our messengers with the clear signs, and We sent down with them the book and the balance, so that people may uphold justice" (57:25). Books Known Among the books that were revealed, we know: 1) The Torah, which was revealed to ... [Continue Reading]

In the Bible we read of the test that the Jews applied to Jesus (pbuh) in order to ascertain his truthfulness. The Jews had a prophecy that required Elias to come before Jesus (pbuh): "Elias verily cometh first" Mark 9:12 (also John 3:28). They had not seen Elias yet so they doubted the claim of Jesus (pbuh).
