This book looks at what motivates Muslims to reach out to people of other faiths. The book found that for Muslims, their sense of sharing a common humanity with non-Muslims is a key factor. The book is based on the experience of a group of Muslims in East London who have worked successfully for several years with the non-Muslims in their community. The books finding suggests that whilst leaders and scholars of different religions might focus on such areas as the nature of God or the similarities of holy scriptures across different religions as the basis for unity, for the people at the grassroots, relating with those of other faiths is more about being human together.
