In case you are ignorant, Christianity and Islam were born out of Judaism. There are many shared aspects between Judaism and Islam. Islam was strongly influenced by Judaism in its fundamental religious outlook, structure, jurisprudence, dietary laws, and practice.
Islam generally teaches that the Torah (first five books of the Hebrew Bible) and the rest of the prophetic books of the Jews are legitimate scripture.
“Using civilizations surrounding them?—– we all do that? We take the best of all worlds and incorporate it into our modern lives. What the greatest invention to come out of the Islamic world? Just asking!
