Abstract
In the Quran have been mentioned the Torah, tablets, scrolls, etc. The Old Testament, on the other hand, has a unique credibility with Jews and Christians because it is the Jewish scripture and is the first part of the Christian Bible. The Qur'an also speaks extensively of the Bible of the Children of Israel. What is the relationship between what is said in the Qur'an about the Jewish scriptures and the Old Testament? Is Tankh (Old Testament) approved by the Qur'an? Some believe that the meaning and example of the Qur'anic verses is the Tanakh (Old Testament) which is collected in the covenants, therefore they consider it a kind of sanctity and authenticity. In the first stage, this research has dealt with the books attributed to the Prophet Moses by the descriptive-analytical method and has determined their meaning, and then examines the relationship between those books and writings with Tankh (Old Testament) has done. The result indicates that the existing (Old Testament) cannot be approved by the Qur'an.
