    Christianity was not true. I think that's where you are getting confused.

    just think about it logically...doen't christianity have the same statement?
    if there is only one God and He is present always...throughout the complete human history...and he has sent Adam as to Earth...and every other prophet to guide us to the right path. Solomon as, David as, Moses as, Jonas as, Josef as, Noah as...
    why would their names be mentioned in the Bible if they all called to their own religion?
    so...Christianity AND Judaism have both the same statement as Islam...Islam is just the latest update of the true religion...and with that all other religions are declared invalid.

    How do they have the same statement of these prophets never named those religions Christianity or Judaism? Note, Moses was from the tribe of Levi, not Judah but they are related none of the less.

    that is dependant of what you mean exactly with christianity...let's not make the discussion more complicated than it already is right now...
    for now...if Christianity was never true...why would a small part of them be called "people of the Book"?

    why would they name the true religion they want to call people to christianity or judaism? that does not make sense.
    doesn't Moses as bring the Thorah to the people?
    isn't that the holy book of the Jews?

    From the Islamic point of view from what I understand so far, the Christians were a group of people that believed in Jesus as the messiah and it didn’t mean followers of Christianity, it meant supporters of Christ and they were Muslims. Not the meaning we have today.

    Just because Judaism is implied in the Bible and the Talmud, doesn’t mean it’s mentioned by name and that’s my opinion.

    Re: Meaning of this link

    I think you are confused because you're using western definitions and applying them to the Islamic explanations. You have to stay within the context of Islam. Obviously dictionaries will not tell you that Jesus and Moses were preaching Islam. It would make no sense though in the larger scheme of things for each one to be preaching a different religion.

    I am confused with the Islamic definition vs western definition because they both have similarities for lots of things to the point it’s hard to differentiate between them.

    the true form of Christianity and Judaism were once religions of God...after all...both of them received holy books.
    why would God send holy books for false religions?
    they became false later on and then those names appeared.

    Again, Islam was always there...from the very start...people wandered off and then came Moses as to guide them back to Islam and he gave them the original Thorah...people wandered off again, started to add innovations and changed their religion and even wrote their own holy book, the talmut and Judaism was born...So then came Jesus as to guide people back to Islam. He also gave his people a holy book the original Bible but people wandered off again, started to add innovations and changed their religion and Christianity was born...Then came Muhammed sas to guide everyone one last time back to Islam.

    Hope you understand this time.

    most christians do not follow the Injil...they follow the Bible which is full of alterations. Besides they believe in a trinity rather than in one God.
    and they know about Muhammed sas and the Quraan but ignore that. the same with Jews.
    I think you can understand how one would get confused reading these series of posts...

    There were Arabs who believed in God and had prophets too in Islam, so were they people of the book too?

    Not all prophets had books or scriptures, so I guess it depends on which groups of people and time period you are referring to.
