The Tension
PASSAGE AMatthew 23:34
Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify...

[Al-Anʼām - 90]

﴿ أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ هَدَى ٱللَّهُۖ فَبِهُدَىٰهُمُ ٱقۡتَدِهۡۗ قُل لَّآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ أَجۡرًاۖ إِنۡ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكۡرَىٰ لِلۡعَٰلَمِينَ ﴾ [الأنعام - ۹۰]

[Al-Anʼām - 90] They are those whom Allah had guided. So follow their guidance. Say: "No reward I ask of you for this (the Quran). It is only a reminder for the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns)."

Analysis

This is relevant because it establishes a shared foundation: both faiths recognize a history of prophets. For Muslims making Dawah, this alignment shows that Islam doesn’t appear suddenly as an unrelated religion—it emerges from the same divine pattern of guidance acknowledged in the Bible. Recognizing that multiple prophets were sent by God helps clarify that Islam’s belief in prophethood fits seamlessly into the biblical narrative of divine revelation.
