| Summary: | Interfaith dialogue, as we understand it today, has been taking place between Christians and Jews for nearly a century, but Jewish–Muslim dialogue is a more recent phenomenon. Jews and Muslims have much in common, but relations are overshadowed by the failure to address the impact of the Middle East conflict. For most Jews, the creation of the State of Israel is an ancient promise fulfilled – the ingathering of exiles and a guarantee of physical and spiritual security. Yet many Muslims term the same events ‘The Disaster’, a time when an Islamic society was uprooted and became a minority. In Jewish–Muslim dialogue it is essential to be prepared for conflicting views. |
