Major Primary Source Paper: Koran
This paper will be discussing the Koran and specific questions about how The Koran, Hebrew scripture and the Bible relate to a specific section of the Koran. The specific section being pages 204, 205 and 208. The Koran is a religious text written almost 1500 years ago. It was written down by the prophet Mohammed. It is believed to come directly from God.

"Abraham said to his father 'why do you worship worthless idols, a think that can be neither hear nor see" This is trying to convey the point that Worshiping Jesus as an adult is wrong and he's a false idol.
In in the selection from the Koran it doesn't say specifically how to treat Christians or Jews but it has a few brief quotes that can give clues. "Yet, if they deny this revelation you may destroy yourself with grief, sorrowing over them." Page
