About this ebook

From Miroslav Volf, one of the world's foremost Christian theologians—and co-teacher, along with Tony Blair, of a groundbreaking Yale University course on faith and globalization—comes Allah, a timely and provocative argument for a new pluralism between Muslims and Christians. In a penetrating exploration of every side of the issue, from New York Times headlines on terrorism to passages in the Koran and excerpts from the Gospels, Volf makes an unprecedented argument for effecting a unified understanding between Islam and Christianity. In the tradition of Seyyed Hossein Nasr’s Islam in the Modern World, Volf’s Allah is essential reading for students of the evolving political science of the twenty-first century.

Ratings and reviews

Islam believes Issa (Jesus) was a prophet, not the Child of Allah. Allah is Alone, no child, no wives,etc. Christians praying to Jesus, But Muslims prays only to Allah,not to Muhammad(peace be upon him). Muhammad(peace be upon him) is the last prophet, no prophet will come till Final Judgement Day. Issa will come but not as a prophet, as a follower of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

If you ask ALLAH,ALLAH will definitely answer you,my dear friends

Being mulima is a gift my dear brothers and sisters
