"The Role of Islam in Inter-Faith Dialogue,"

Asma Afsaruddin in Bulletin of the Association of Muslim Social Scientists, 3/2 (2002): 13-14.

The inclusivist Qur’anic view of righteous Jews and Christians forming a
religious commonwealth with righteous Muslims paves the way towards
dialogic encounters today among the three Abrahamic faiths. Qur’anic
emphasis on civil discourse among these three faith communities and on a shared commitment to upholding the principle of goodness while resisting wrong-doing establishes a protocol for inter-faith dialogue. Afsaruddin points to concrete examples of dialogic encounters through time spurred by this scripture-based vision.
