The Quran — Exposed and Answered
This edition prints the Quran in the public-domain English translation of Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall (1930), complete and unaltered, so the reader can test everything for himself. Passages that contradict the Bible, the history, or themselves are highlighted, and each carries a refutation note with the Scripture that answers it. We publish this book for one reason: that those deceived by it might see the truth, and that Christians might be ready to give an answer (1 Peter 3:15).
“Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.” — John 5:39
