Notes
Dialogue with others will not be achieved through conferences or seminars held between a Muslim, a Christian, or other followers of other religions, in which points of view are exchanged, research is received, recommendations are determined, and then they are quickly left on the shelves without having any significant practical impact. Dialogue is an act, a behavior, and a system of moral values in dealing with others, starting with the vocabulary of daily life and ending with granting them the full right to freedom, citizenship, life, and continuity. From this perspective, there is no Islamic nation capable of fulfilling the demands of “dialogue” in its practical sense, at the level of jurisprudential foundations or historical practices. The task of this research is not to follow up on the fertile and distinguished jurisprudential data regarding dealing with others, but rather to highlight some historical practices as mere evidence, among an innumerable stream of testimonies, confirming beyond any room for doubt that Christians and Jews from the People of the Book and other religious sects lived their lives and exercised their religious and civil rights throughout the lands of Islam, in a way that no historical experience in the world has ever witnessed and will never witness. Before we go in to follow up on the facts of the subject, we must remind once again that a thousand dialogue conferences will not carry credibility, or lead to achieved action, as “history” carries and leads to, as it is the final arbiter of the ability of “principles” to come into contact with reality, and to transform “the word” into visible action...
