The Apology of Al Kindy, Written at the Court of Al Mâmûn, (A.H. 215; A.D. 830) in Defence of Christianity against Islam

William Muir provides an English translation of Al Kindy’s Christian apology, purportedly written around 830 A. D. Abd al-Masih ibn Ishaq al-Kindi, known as Al-Kindi, was an Arab born from a noble family in the plains of Chaldea. Written in dialogue form between a Christian and a Muslim, the apology brings attention to perceived flaws in the Islamic faith and argues in favor of Christianity.
