The Arab theology and the roots of religious violence

In this book, Yusuf Zidan traces the most important ideas that shaped the perception of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, of the relationship between humans and the Creator, and then how Christian theology and Islamic Kalam science directed towards theological visions that are difficult to separate in their stages. The book discusses, analyzes, compares, and traces the development of theological ideas on both the Christian and Islamic levels. This is in order to understand the hidden links between the traditional historical stages, called Jewish history - Christian history - Islamic history! And based on a different perspective on all these histories, considering them as one history mainly connected to geography, and governed by one mechanism, it is necessary to understand the nature of its work in the past and present, leading to a broader understanding of the relationship between religion, politics, and violence, which this single culture has never been free from, as long as it lives in isolated islands.
