Résumé : |
In Bridges to Islam Phil Parshall explores the links which facilitate understanding between Islam and Christianity. The most promising bridges can be found in “folk Islam” which is less known in the West but influences about 70 percent of the world’s Muslims
This popular form of Islam consists largely of people “who desire to know God and to be accepted by him,” writes the author. “They have a high view of one God who is all-powerful and merciful." Folk Muslims press for a more satisfying personal relationship with Allah. These teachings and aspirations have immense potential as commonalities providing greater understanding, which the author has personally witnessed spending many years ministering among Muslims. This thorough and in-depth study of ways to bridge the distance between folk Islam and Christianity will be invaluable to missionaries, students, and those interested in understanding the moderate (or peaceful) Muslim. |
