Résumé
This work presents, in English translation, the largest collection ever assembled of the sayings and stories of Jesus in Arabic Islamic literature. Tarif Khalidi's introduction and commentaries place the sayings and stories in their historical context, showing how and why… this "gospel" arose and the function it served within Muslim devotion. The sayings and stories, some 300 in number and arranged in chronological order, show us how the image of this Jesus evolved throughout a millennium of Islamic history. 2001.
