"What do Muslims really believe? In our multicultural world, Christians and Muslims will inevitably meet, work with, and live near each other. We hear bits and pieces about what Muslims believe, but is it all true? What does the Qur'an really say about things like Jesus, war, and non-Muslims? What does the Bible say? If we are to engage in informed, loving conversation with Muslims, we need to be equipped with more than the often-specious talking points we glean from the news or email forwards ... Islam is one of the fastest-growing faiths in the world. If we are to engage in an informed, loving conversation with Muslims, this book is an indispensible collection of accurate, understandable information taken directly from the primary source books of both faiths."--Publisher's website.
