Muslims ask, Christians answer

Muslims and Christians meet more and more and Muslims often ask for the faith of Christians. This volume discusses 12 of the most important issues and explains the context in which they arise.
On the basis of Christian theology and the experience of dialogue with Muslims, Christian positions are clarified and proposals for sensitive and sincere responses are elaborated. The group thus offers Christians and Muslims an excellent orientation and basis for joint discussion.
