In the Qur’an, Allah gives us a simple message to live by; “Come together upon the things that we agree on, fore the TRUTH has manifested itself.” In other words, be not divisive when the truth has been shown and/or demonstrated.

The term interfaith dialogue refers to cooperative, constructive and positive interaction between people of different religious traditions (i.e., “faiths”) and/or spiritual or humanistic beliefs, at both the individual and institutional levels. It is distinct from syncretism or alternative religion, in that dialogue often involves promoting understanding between different religions or beliefs to increase acceptance of others, rather than to synthesize new beliefs.
