We also find this view expressed by Xxxxxxx in his Geschichte of 1928.56 In addition to Koranic exegesis and Tradition,57 modern scholars also identified Jewish influence on Islamic theology. Their discussion on this issue, according to Xxxxxxx, revolves mostly around three problems: (1) Anthropomorphism and anti- anthropomorphism; (2) the eternal or created Koran; (3) the dilemma between predestination and free will.58 To begin with, when dealing with this issue, Xxxxxx highlighted certain theological concepts of Islam, which according to him, were borrowings from Judaism, such as the concept of tawṆīd, the one-ness of God, reward and punishment, the creation of the Earth and the Heaven in seven days, the concept of resurrection of the bodies in the Hereafter, revelation through the xxxxx Xxxxxxx, the notion of the heavenly book, the merit of certain ascetic practices, etc. 59 53Seale, op. cit., p. 7, 12; 54Gardet and Xxxxxxx, op. cit., p. 35; Xxxxx, op. cit., p. 25.‌ 55Gardet and Xxxxxxx, op. cit., p. 35 56Neuwmark, Xxxxx, Geschichte der jüdischen Philosophie des Mittelalters nach Problemen dargestellt (Berlin: Xxxxxx, 1907-1928), I, 84, 115. 57See the discussion on this issue by modern scholars: Munk, S., Melanges de philosophie juive et arabe, (Paris: Xxxxxx, 1859); Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, Die Biblischen Erzählungen im Qoran (Gräfenhainichen: Druck von X.

(Leipzig: Verlag von X.X.Xxxxxxxx, 1833, reprinted in 1902), esp. 61-83. According to Xxxxxxxxx, the MuÝtazilites owed their two principle doctrines to Judaism, i.e. the concept of the unity of God and that of His Justice. He argued ‘Hingegen lassen sich die Hauptpuncte der muÝtazilitischen Anschauungen in der voraufgegangenen jüdischen Literatur nachweisen und es gibt bestimmte Daten bei arabischen Geschictschreibern, welche die Lehren der MuÝtaziliten auf das Judenthum zurückführen.
