FERGUSON’S LECTURE focused on the content of the Quran to argue her point that Christians and Muslims are not far apart in their beliefs. Fluent in English, French and Arabic, Ferguson dug into passages that are not unlike those found in the Bible. To make her case, Ferguson pointed to readings in the Quran that recognized the stature and attributes that Christians glorify. Muslims, said Ferguson, believe God revealed three holy books, the Torah, the Bible and the Quran. The largest chapter in the Quran is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and she is mentioned more times in the Quran than she is in the New Testament, Ferguson said. “She is the embodiment of the perfect woman.” The prophet Abraham is revered in Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
