Does Bible share similarities to Quran?

Question

According to Bible, Adam and Eve. According to Quran, Adam and Hawa. I bet got many things else

Answer 1

Although the names may seem different they are the same people. When the Bible was changed from Greek, Latin, Aramic, Hebrew some of the names were changed so that the people in the new translated language would be able to understand.

Eve = Hawa
Jesus = Isa
John the Baptist = Yahya
Abraham = Ibrahim
Lot = Lut
Ishmael = Ismail
Isaac = Ishaq
Jacob = Yaqub
Moses = Musa
Job = Ayub
David = Dawood
Ezekiel = Dhul-Kifl
Solomon = Sulaiman
Enoch = Idris
Noah = Nuh
Jonah = Yunus
Elijah = Ilyas
Eber = Hud
Shaloh = Saleh
Aaron = Harūn
Jethro = Shoaib
Elisha = Al-Yasa
Zacharias = Zakariya

Peace be upon them all

Answer 2

Well, there are many differences. But Hawa is just the Arabic name of Eve. It is derived from 'haya', which means life.

Many things in the Quran are different from the Bible. However, The 3 books of the 3 most dominant religions share similarities because they call for the worship of God.

In the Quran, the Fall of Adam and Eve from Paradise is evoked in many scenes. Saytan or the Devil tempted both Adam and Hawa to eat from the "tree". Then God forgave Adam and ordered "all" of them to 'go down', meaning to earth (Surat albaqara/the cow 30-38).

Answer 4

I have read both and they are pretty much the same, except that Bible was written before: thats true.
but bible has been changed various times; Infact there are many different versions. Quran has only one version. So if you bring a quran from Australia and another from bangladish or china, and compare them, they would be EXACT LETTER BY LETTER. Which to me is a prove that the quran is protected from any change.

And yeah, they are both the same because they come from the same source: God (in arabic: Allah)

and Hawwa translates to Eve.

Answer 5

Another similarity: The Koran says Jesus was a great prophet. The Bible says he was a prophet but much more than a prophet. Jesus claims to be God. The Koran considers Jesus to be a prophet would a prophet lie in saying he is God ?

Answer 6

This has no similarity:

QUESTION OF AUTHENTICITY
What proof did Muhammad have to offer that these suras did indeed come from the one true God?

Time and again this fact is admitted as his listeners accuse Muhammad of imposture and forgery. See Sura 2:118; 10:38; 11:13; 17:89-93; 21:5, 6, Ali.
“Why is not a sign sent down to him from his Lord”? (Sura 6:37; 13:7, Ali) But they were told: ‘Certainly signs are in the power of God: but what will make you realize that if Signs came, they will not believe?’ “We refrain from sending the Signs, only because the men of former generations treated them as false.”—Sura 6:109; 17:59, Ali.

Two thousand years before, when Moses was asked to go to his people with a message from God, he immediately saw the question of authenticity: “But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice; for they will say, Jehovah hath not appeared unto thee.” Jehovah solved that problem by empowering Moses to perform three signs. Seeing these proofs of authenticity, “the people believed.”—Ex. 4:1-31, AS.

And for the next forty years the Israelites witnessed many, many more miracles. Particularly was divine power manifested at the time of the giving of the law: thunder, lightning, fire, smoke, trumpet sound and earthquake; all combined to testify that Moses was not an impostor but was indeed a divinely commissioned prophet.—Exodus, chapters 7 through 15; 19:16-18; Deut. 8:14-16.

When Christ Jesus came, the same question of authenticity arose, and again it was answered unequivocally. So much so that he was able to send to John the assuring report: “The blind are seeing again, and the lame are walking about, the lepers are being cleansed and the deaf are hearing, and the dead are being raised.” And so to the religious leaders of his day Jesus could say: “If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe me. But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works.”—Matt. 11:5; John 10:37, 38, NW.

Why, even the scoffing, hypocritical and malicious religious leaders received a sign, that of Jonah, or of Jesus’ resurrection after he had lain in the grave for three days. And his followers did even greater signs in that they performed them over a wider area and for a much longer period of time.—Matt. 16:1-4; 28:12-15; John 14:12; Acts 1:3-11; 19:11, 12; 1 Cor. 14:22; 15:1-20.

Repeatedly his listeners were told that Muhammad was merely a warner; but that was only begging the question; they wanted proof that Muhammad was indeed God’s warner by the performance of signs. True, some in former times did not believe in spite of signs, but that did not keep God from sending signs by his prophets. And neither was that fact used by Christ Jesus as an excuse for not giving proof of his divine commission by the performance of signs.—Sura 3:180, 181; 5:36; 9:71, Rodwell.

Answer 7

hawa is just eve in Arabic.
yes there are many similarities..
because they were revealed by the same God.
in fact they would be pretty much identical if the bible was never changed.

Answer 8

Oh,it's pretty much the same,with comparatively minor variations - got your Noah,the flood,Abraham,Issac,Jesus,Mary,everything. Apparently Mohammed studied with a Christian monk named Bahira,but he heard everything from his perspective as an Arab. Basically,Islam is a form of Christianity customized for Arabs,and with an add-on Prophet,kind of like the Mormons. It's a lot closer to Christianity than Judiasm,which presents Yahweh as a tribal god and not for the whole of humanity.

Answer 9

Yes they are very much historically the same, but the Gospel was written first.

Answer 10

No! It has nothing to do with the Holy Bible!
