Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Contrast Between Christianity and Muhammadanism: Four Lectures Delivered in Christ Church Cathedral, Zanzibar
Christianity and Muhammadanism were delivered to a European congregation in the Cathedral in Zanzibar on the Sundays in September, 1903. They lay no claim to originality. I have used freely the translations of the Qur'an by Palmer, Rodwell and Sale. I have also used very freely Canon Sell's Faith of Islam, Dr. J. M. Arnold's Islam and Christianity, and Hughes' Dictionary of Islam. But the conclusions to which these and other books have led me have been verified by constant dis eussions with Muhammadans, by Contact with Muham madanism in Zanzibar and East Africa, by some study of the Qur'an in the original, and by some knowledge of Muhammadanism as it is popularly believed and practised in Zanzibar at the present time.
