In A Comparative Analysis of the Bible with the Koran – Truth vs Chaos, Charles R. Floyd presents a compelling discussion on how biblical truth contrasts sharply with Islamic teachings. One of the earliest points of divergence appears in the story of Adam naming the animals, where the Bible and the Koran tell fundamentally different versions.
Genesis 2:19-20 describes how God brought the animals to Adam, allowing him to name them as an exercise of his God-given authority. The emphasis is on Adam’s active role—his intellectual and spiritual capacity to assign names without external instruction. The Koran, however, in Sura The Cow (2:31-34), presents a different scenario: Alla directly teaches Adam the names and then instructs him to relay them to the angels. The presence of angels and the method of Adam’s learning introduce a shift in understanding—was Adam merely a vessel for preordained knowledge, or was he given dominion to exercise free will?
Charles R. Floyd asserts that such differences aren’t minor details but pivotal distinctions in theology. The Bible presents Adam as an independent agent of God’s plan, reflecting mankind’s divine role. The Koran, in contrast, suggests a more controlled narrative where Adam is instructed rather than empowered.
This contrast fuels the broader discussion in A Comparative Analysis of the Bible with the Koran – Truth vs Chaos. If the Bible is the unchanging word of God, then contradictions found in the Koran demand scrutiny. Floyd invites readers to seek truth and make their own conclusions.
