"Offering an analysis of Christian-Muslim dialogue across four centuries, this book
highlights those voices of ecumenical tone which have more often used the Qur'an for
drawing the two faiths together rather than pushing them apart, and amplifies the
voice of the Qur'an itself. Finding that there is tremendous ecumenical ground between
Christianity and Islam in the voices of their own scholars, this book ranges from
a period of declining ecumenism during the first three centuries of Islam, to a period
of resurging ecumenism during the most recent century until now. Among the ecumenical
voices in the Christian-Muslim dialogue, this book points out that the Qur'an itself
is possibly the strongest of those voices. These findings are cause for, and evidence
of, hope for the Christian-Muslim relationship: that although agreement may never
be reached, dialogue has led at times to very real mutual understanding and appreciation
of the religious other."
