Description: Paper on the literary sources of the figures of Cain and Abel in the Islamic Qur'an.
Muhammad used several local religious sources as information for his recital of the Quran. This paper deals with his use of Judaistic material as source material. Muhammad synthesied Islam from several sources: Judaism, Christianity, Sabeanism, paganism, and his own changing personal theology. A quick review of the Quran shows that Muhammad was influenced by various Jewish sources. In this paper, I deal with only one Jewish topic - the murder of Abel.
