About Mikraite

This post was updated on .
Mikraite values are the values of the Old Testament and the Quran.  This forum is for people with these values.  People from other religions with values that don't conflict with Mikraite values are welcome here.  But people whose values conflict with Mikraite values don't belong here.  In particular, members of modern culture and supporters of modern culture will be banned.

The word "Mikra" is Hebrew for the Old Testament and means "that which is read".  The Hebrew base word is "kara" which means "read".  The word "Quran" in Arabic is also based on the Arabic word for "read".  In other words, both the Old Testament and the Quran are to be read.

Re: About Mikraite

Ibn Ghassan
The first word that was revealed by God to Muhammad(Prophet of Islam) is “Iqra” or “Read” and it sounds quite similar to Mikra :-) , Iqra bi-ismika rabbiq or read in the Name of your Lord Allah SWT.
