The Islamic Dilemma

by Christopher W. Frost

Overview

What if the Qur’an affirms scriptures that contradict its own message? The “Islamic Dilemma” presents a serious challenge: if the earlier revelations are trustworthy, they appear to undermine the Qur’an - but if they are corrupted, why does the Qur’an speak of them as authoritative?

In this concise and thought-provoking book, Chris draws on years of study and debate - including online discussions that have attracted over 8 million views on his channel, Chris at Speakers’ Corner - to unpack one of the most discussed issues in modern interfaith dialogue. Tracing the history of the argument and engaging with contemporary scholarship, he presents the Islamic Dilemma in a clear, structured, and accessible way.

More than just an introduction, this book equips readers with the tools to confidently understand, explain, and defend the argument. It also addresses common objections raised by Muslims, offering reasoned responses grounded in careful analysis and referenced sources.

Whether you are new to the topic or looking to sharpen your understanding, this book serves as both a guide and a resource for engaging one of the most important theological questions surrounding Islam today.
