Western and Muslim world views seem at odds on virtually every point. Can you speak of common ground upon which which future cooperation could be anchored?

  2. One attempt to establish common ground (at least between Muslim and Christians) is an open letter written in October 2007 to the Pope.
    In the midst of fallout over the Pope's remarks, alleged to be critical of the prophet Muhammad's teachings, Muslim leaders wrote a letter that soon gathered signatures and has grown to become the world's leading interfaith dialogue initiative between Christians and Muslims. You can read about the letter and the letter itself, emphasizing the commonalities in scriptures at the
    Common Word website

  3. There is cooperation between the West and the Islamic world is in many of the scholars of the Islamic world who are working in the West, and is also in the consumption of the Muslim world - with regret - for the production of the West, Islam believes in the dialogue of civilizations, Islam believes in cooperation between the humanS, the West is the one who believes in a clash of civilizations
