Muslim Friends

Muslim Friends provides an introduction to Islam to help Christians better understand the Muslims' faith and practice. This volume enables non-Muslims to understand Islam and to help foster friendly relations between non-Muslims and Muslims.

This is no ordinary account of Islam by a missionary, though there is much that will attract mission readers; nor is it the impartial approach sought by the academy, though there is much that is academic; it is rather like taking a journey of faith that behind the media facade of Islam as a militant, violent, resurgent and world-threatening force, there is an Islam of the heart. Western readers will begin to understand that Muslims too are humans with fears and hopes, that they too are on a journey of faith, and that perhaps friendship rather than enmity ought to be the goal.
