A Call to Dialogue. Christians in Dialogue with Muslims

We are pleased to announce the release of "A Call to Dialogue. Christians in Dialogue with Muslims", edited by Ambrogio Bongiovanni and Victor Edwin SJ, with forewords by H.E. Mgr Felix Machado, Archbishop of Vasai (India) and Diego Sarriò Cucarella M.Afr., Dean of PISAI - Pontifical Institute of Arabic and Islamic Studies.

The book is a bouquet of essays appeared in the last forty volumes of Salaam, the journal of Islamic
rnStudies Association based in Delhi, highlighting the concrete efforts for Christian–Muslim relations in
rnIndia which might bring some light and encouragement to those involved in the same venture even in
rnother contexts. Overcoming tensions and prejudices, we believe in building up ‘alternative’ communities
rnwitnessing reciprocally the love for God and for all human beings, faithful to our own traditions
rnand in the spirit of Document on the Human Fraternity jointly signed in Abu Dhabi (2019) by Pope
rnFrancis and the Grand Iman of al–Azhar, Ahmad al–Tayyeb. That is not only an exclusive pattern for
rnChristians and Muslims but can be an inspiration for dialogue for all religious traditions.

It is anticipated that the official presentation of the volume will take place at the Pontifical Gregorian University early next year.
