À propos de l'auteur

Father Anselm Grün, born in 1945, is a monk at Münsterschwarzach Abbey. His spiritual guidance and counsel – regardless of religious denomination – have made him one of Germany’s best-known authors on spirituality.


Ahmad Milad Karimi, PhD, born 1979, in Kabul, studied philosophy, mathematics, and Islamic studies in Darmstadt, Freiburg, and New Delhi. Since 2016, Karimi holds a professorship in kalam, Islamic philosophy, and mysticism at the University of Münster.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

“Together, Christians and Muslims comprise the world’s largest number of people of faith —

literally billions of believers. With false perceptions and apprehensions rife, it is critical for those

of both faiths to understand each other's beliefs and values. Now at last there is a book that

answers the pressing questions of Muslims about Christianity and the essential questions of

Christians about Islam. We could not have asked for two more credible guides: Ahmad Milad

Karimi, a devout Muslim philosopher; and Anselm Grün, a Benedictine monk, a mystic and the

author of some three hundred texts on Christian life. Their book has been born not out of

judgmentalism or argument, but out of humility rather than. Yet their book moves beyond

reducing each religion to the simple bromide that all paths lead to the same God. Grün and

Karimi show us that in our undeniable differences, there lies beauty and truth, also strength. As

they point out, we can indeed live out our faiths differently and still be united in a search for God

that leads not to ‘a’ path, but to the much deeper work of heart and soul that allows for ‘turning

oneself into the path.’"
