Muslim Hebraists

Muslim Hebraists (Arabic: المسلمون العبرازيم) are Muslims who use the Bible, generally referred to in quranic studies as the Tawrat and the Injil, to interpret the Qur'an.[2][3] Unlike mainstream Sunni Muslims, Muslim Hebraists allow intertextual studies between the Islamic holy books, and reject the concept of tahrif (which holds that previous revelations of God have been corrupted).[4][5][6]

Notable Muslim Hebraists include Al-Biruni (d. 1052) and Ibrahim ibn Umar al-Biqa'i (d. 1480).[1][7]
