ABSTRACT
There will always be men and women who will attempt to build that bridge to Islam and who will not rest until they have succeeded. Islam requires a strict ritual in worship which only too easily develops into a rigid form bare of all spiritual significance. The relationship between Christianity and Islam during the past was mostly overshadowed by political considerations. The peculiar problem in the work with Muslims arises because Islam has a great similarity with Christianity in its outward form. Muslims believe in one God, and so do Christians. Muslims have a book, the Qur'an; Christians have a book, the Bible. Muslims have a founder, the messenger of God, Muhammad; Christians also have a founder, Christ, the Son of God. Muslims have a creed; Christians have a creed. Muslims have a number of religious duties to perform; Christians seem to do likewise.
