Pedro Alfonso is one of the most important persons in Medieval Europe. A wise Jew, educated under Islam and converted to Christianity, he is acquainted with all the religious, scientific and cultural background of the three monotheist semitic cultures that coexist in Medieval Spain along the centuries and that Pedro Alfonso will transmit in Europe. We present the Spanish translation of chapter fifth of the work Dialogues Against Jews, in which he strongly rejects the Islamic religion.
