A Suggested Bibliography on Christian-Muslim Relations There are many published works in Islamic Studies, especially on political Islam in a post 9/11 world. Some of these works are very helpful; others are more ideological. As this work has focused primarily on research about and activity of Lutherans and Anglicans in the area of Christian-Muslim Relations, the following bibliography is intended to be a helpful resource for Christian audiences engaged in or interested in Christian-Muslim encounters. The works identified below focus on Muslim-Christian dialogue, engagement, or relationships. It is not exhaustive, nor should it be seen as exclusive.
