Syriac in the Qur'an? | Grapes in Paradise? | A Qur'anic Studies Professor Explains | G.S. Reynolds

Описание к видео Syriac in the Qur'an? | Grapes in Paradise? | A Qur'anic Studies Professor Explains | G.S. Reynolds

In this video I give a short presentation on different proposals for a Syriac background for a number of Qur'anic stories. I look at the influence that the Syriac Alexander Legend, the Sleepers of Ephesus, as well as other Syriac literature have had on the Qur'an. I also evaluate some of the more controversial proposals for Syriac subtext like that of Christoph Luxenberg who argued that much of the Qur'an can be read as a Syriac text.
