I found Prof. Reynolds’ courses both very important and excellent as well as timely. His first series on Christianity and Islam I presented for discussion at our local public library to an average of 10 people a week for 10 weeks. It was very well received.

I had read the Qur’an, but these CD’s made it much more understandable. It made me realize just why it is so important to them and why they get so upset when it is in any way mocked.

This course offered much needed insight into the Quran. As Catholic Chrstians, we all need to better understand the differences and the origin of Islam.

Complete knowledge and mastery
Prof. Reynolds has complete knowledge and mastery of the Two texts. As you listen to his delivery, he not only imparts the Academic content but you can see how The Sacred Texts have been imbued by Prof. Reynold and the delivery expresses a deep Reverence for the Texts. I had not seen nor heard such before.

Prof. Reynolds, manner of presenting is most inviting, you immediately see that he knows his subject through & through. What is most appealing is: He not only presents his topic but lives and highly honors its content and meaning. You see his dedication and devotion to his profession and audience. I also have his other Lecture: Christian and Islamic Theology.

A very frank, carefully reasoned assessment of the prospects for cooperation between the various strands of Islam and Christianity (including Western culture).

Gabriel Said Reynolds is obviously both very knowledgeable about Islam and at the same time a faithful Catholic. Today when more and more of our neighbors are Muslims his learning contributes a great deal to better understanding and relations.

I like the easy scholarship of Gabriel S. Reynolds, Ph.D., a UND professor. He is fluent in Arabic and makes Islam understandable with comparisons to Christian theology.
