The necessity of a religious dialogue between Christians and Mus-lims these days has come to
mind very often for a lot of reasons especially in the process of globalization. What happened
on September 11 2001 and its consequences have reinforced the neces-sity. Not only a religion
but also its followers numbering more than a billion people run the risk of falling into
disrepute thereby.Islamic teaching according to the latest religion coming from Abraham
confirms the previous religions. Islam is the only religion after Christ which recognizes in
Jesus not only the Word of God but also sees in Jesus a sign of God`s love and mercy. The
following verse is a witness to the importance of the Jewish and the Christian belief from the
Islamic view.Say ye:We believe in God and the revelation given to us and to Ibrahim Isma'il
Ishaq Ya'qub and the Tribes and that given to Musa and'Isa and that given to (all) Prophets
from their Lord: we make no difference between one and another of them: and we bow to God (in
Islam).[2:136]The diversity in God`s offer is a wealth which we absolutely must recognize
today.
