Islamic polemical literature against Judaism is typified by the repetition of ideas expressed in previous generations alongside growth and development in new directions. This article focuses on writings against Judaism by Jews who willingly converted to Islam. These converts’ texts reveal meaningful and unique characteristics that justify their being considered a subgenre of the polemical literature. This largely results from the converts’ intimate acquaintance with their forebears’ Jewish faith, thought, and rituals. This knowledge enabled them to raise new and original arguments, primary among them from Hebrew literature, which was not accessible to Muslims from birth. The article concludes with insights about the converts’ writings and the utility of identifying them as a subgenre for the study of Muslim-Jewish polemic.

皈依伊斯兰教的犹太教徒反对其祖先信仰的著作：宗教间争论文学的一个分支

伊斯兰反对犹太教的论战文学的特点是重复前几代人表达的思想，同时在新的方向上成长和发展。本文重点关注自愿皈依伊斯兰教的犹太人反对犹太教的著作。这些皈依者的文本揭示了有意义和独特的特征，证明它们被视为辩论文学的一个子流派。这很大程度上是由于皈依者对他们祖先的犹太信仰、思想和仪式的熟悉。这些知识使他们能够提出新的、原创的论点，其中主要来自希伯来文学，而穆斯林从出生起就无法接触到希伯来文学。文章最后提出了对皈依者著作的见解，以及将它们确定为研究穆斯林与犹太人争论的一个子类型的效用。
