New Resource
The Center for Muslim-Jewish Engagement (CMJE) has expanded and enhanced its Muslim and Jewish religious text resources. CMJE has compiled an online resource center including an adapted compendium of fully searchable Islamic religious texts alongside Jewish religious texts. This resource was developed to:
- Assist religious and lay leaders as they create sermons and curricula around Jewish-Muslim themes;
- Facilitate scholarship on Islam and Judaism by academics and students alike;
- Allow quick and easy viewing of various issues from the perspectives of the sacred texts of each faith.
Each religious text has several translations in order to facilitate scholarly study, debate, and religious text study on a variety of topics. We will continue to expand this compendium in order to provide a user-friendly resource for scholarship and general educational purposes.
