The Truth About
A Common Word
By Sam Solomon and Al-Maqdisi
In October 2007, a group of 138 Muslim scholars, clerics and intellectuals sent an open letter, entitled A Common Word Between Us and You, that was addressed to the leaders of all the world's churches.
In March 2008, the first edition of this response was released. This present version is a slightly revised edition. It is available in print and online at the website of the original publisher, Pilcrow Press, and here on Answering Islam.
