The ONLY time an “Eagle” is mentioned in ALL of the Islamic writings is in one hadith (I believe it was Bukhari) where the ransom amount is given for stealing an eagle and holding it for ransom. I kid you NOT! I am NOT making this up.

I'm glad to be informed of this as I do not know anything about the Islamic writings! Thank you, Mary Lou!

I didn’t either.

I used the Internet a lot in researching that dumb email! It just did not make sense to me. Eagles are NOT Mentioned in the Koran at all. Just that once in an endless maze of Hadiths (commentaries).

However, Eagles ARE mentioned in the Bible. Isaiah 40 is a Gorgeous Example!
