| Summary: | The nature and scope of interactions between Muslims and Christians are rapidly increasing. Many devout constituents of each religion are eager to win converts to their faith, so it is important for members of each to become familiar with the other. This article reports experiences that led a Christian sociologist to undertake an in-depth evaluation of a significant Islamic book that claims Muhammad was foretold in the Bible. His summary and critique can help members of both faiths gain increased knowledge and understanding of the other. Under the impact of globalization, immigration, international trade, warfare, refugee services, and other sources of population mobility, the number of Muslims residing in Western societies is rapidly increasing, so Muslim neighbors are no longer a rarity. Thousands more from dozens of nations are annually a part of international student bodies. Faculty members at all levels of education and in schools of all types increasingly encounter them. Some have Muslim colleagues, and most meet Muslim peers at professional meetings. Christians who do not assimilate the popular but false ideology that all monotheistic religions are equivalent to each other soon recognize that familiarity with the teachings of Islam is important. |
