Abstract

With the advent of the Islamic invitation by the Prophet (PBUH), Christians living in the peninsula and the Byzantine Empire, took different approaches toward Islam. One of those approaches was the writing of The Apologetics which has been evaluated by the contemporary Muslim scholars as hostile, groundless and based on forged traditions. It seems that john of Damascus was the first Eastern Christian to write an apologetic against Islam. This study seeks to examine some of the historical statements mentioned in john's work to determine whether these were purely illusions or that they can also be traced back to Islamic traditions. The findings show that what are seen as the most significant problems or reproofs of Christians against Islam and have the highest frequency came out of the Islamic community during the era of the Umayyad's dominance. John and his father, Sarjun ibn Mansur, lived in Umayyad court for decades, and their outlook on Islam was strongly influenced by Mu'awiyah and Yazid.
