Abraham is central to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, which is why these traditions are often called the Abrahamic faiths. In this episode of The Quran in Dialogue with Other Faiths, Dr. Shabir Ally looks at why Abraham is so widely revered and what it really means to be a true follower of Abraham, not just by name or lineage, but through faith and practice. Starting with the Quran, we reflect on the faith of Abraham and how Islam understands itself as a continuity of Abraham’s monotheism. Dr. Shabir then turns to the Bible, highlighting passages in Genesis that describe God’s promise and blessing to Abraham, and teachings in the New Testament where John the Baptist and Jesus challenge people not to rely on ancestry, but to live the way Abraham lived. The episode ends with a practical takeaway: if we claim Abraham, we should adopt his humility and devotion in worship, and use this shared love for Abraham as a bridge for meaningful conversation.
