\r\n

Praise be to Allaah.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It is nopt permitted to have any of the books prior to Islam because of the following :<\/span><\/p>\r\n

-         Anything helpful in them Allah illustrated in the Qur’an.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

-         The Qur’an contains wha makes one in no need of such books.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Allah, Subhanahu Wata’ala, says, “It is He who has sent down the Book ( the Qur’an ) to you ( Mohammad ) in truth, confirming wha came before it. “ therefore, everything useful in these Books is mentioned in the Qur’an.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

With regard to the second qustion, the words sent by Allah to Jesus and of which we may benefit are already in the Qur’an. Furthemore, the existing Bible is distorted, for there are four different scripts, each of which is violating the others. But seekers of knowledge who have the sight of differentiate between truth and wrong can study these books to refute what evil they include. <\/span><\/p>\r\n
