Islam: Global Christian Perspectives - Hardcover
by Wageeh Mikhail (Editor), Michael Nazir-Ali (Foreword by)
There are hundreds of books on Islam; after all, it is the second largest religion on the planet. Few, however, are the books written by Christian scholars of Islam who live and work in Muslim-majority countries. Here lies the value of this current volume. It addresses Islam, Islamic history, Islamic theology, and Christian-Muslim relations from global Christian perspectives where contributors describe experiences and narratives of conversations, obstacles, cohabitation, understanding, and cooperative efforts between Christians and Muslims in a variety of Middle Eastern, African, and Asian nations, including Egypt, Ghana, India, Jordan, Lebanon, and Nigeria. This book treats Islam academically and from a Christian standpoint. Authors discuss historical interactions between Christians and Muslims and, where relevant, current avenues for work for the common good.
Wageeh Mikhail is the Christian-Muslim engagement director of Scholar Leaders. He has twenty years of teaching Christian-Muslim relations and history of Arab Christian theology. He holds a PhD in Arab Christianity from the University of Birmingham (UK).
