Depiction of Man in the Quran & the Bible
The first difference th
The first difference that struck me between the Quran and the Bible accounts of the fall of Adam and Eve was the difference in the depiction of early man. The Bible makes him out to be an innocent enjoyer of paradise. The Quran shows him as having dominion over the Angles even (7,11). Christians tend to see Angels as being stronger than humans are. The fallen among men were saved by his son, while the fallen angels were simply damned. Christians seem to believe that man is not as responsible for his fall as Muslims do.
In Genesis 1:8 it states that Adam and Eve noticed they were naked and made loincloth for themselves. The Quran speaks instead of the "shameful parts
