It is the theory of some members of Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that
Suhuf-i-Ibrahim refers to the books known collectively as the Pearl Of Great Price. These books being The *Book of Abraham and The Book of Moses. *The Pearl Of Great Price was Revealed to their(according to his account) Prophet Joseph Smith, whom some of the members of this denomination use the "peace be upon him," honorific (i.e. as-Salaam Alaykum (السلام عليكم), which means peace be upon you). Muhammad and other Islamic Prophets have the words Peace be upon him or blessed be his name following their names. It is the position of the church that all that are members are either natural decendents of Abraham (mostly through Israel) or they are adopted into the family of Abraham. It is the position of some Latter-Day Saints that because we are adopted into abraham that all LDS members are both Jews and Muslims. These writings profess to contain the words of Moses/Musa and Abraham/Ibrahim that are not found in the Koran/Quran and Also not found In the Torah/Tawrat, nor in any known or widely accepted *Hadith.This veiw is not widely accepted of studied within LDS comunities, it is also not official church doctrine.
