In recent years relations between Christians and Muslims have been reduced, in much popular discourse, to a simple, and often polarized, opposition. Historically the relationship between these two Abrahamic faiths has been much more nuanced and complex. In this book, Tony Dickinson explores some of the complexities, both in Christian-Muslim relations and within Islam, from the earliest years of Muhammad’s prophetic activity until the controversies and conflicts of the present, and suggests some possible approaches to contemporary inter-faith dialogue.

Sister Edmee SLG

Tony Dickinson was born in Liverpool in 1948. After studying in Oxford and Lincoln and a career in university administration, he entered the ordained ministry of the Church of England in 1982, serving in the Dioceses of St Albans and Oxford and, from 2018 to 2024, in the Diocese in Europe. He has been actively involved in interfaith dialogue for nearly forty years, with a particular interest in Christian-Muslim dialogue at the parish level, as a school governor and through membership of the Council for Christian-Muslim Relations in High Wycombe and the Diocese of Oxford’s ‘Presence and Engagement’ network. He is an honorary canon emeritus of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, and is now retired and living in Devon.
