Prophet Muhammad with the Christians of the World is a genuine call for reconsidering
the relationship among the three revealed Abrahamic faiths, which is often viewed by some quarters with vested interests through the foggy lenses

Islamic jurisprudence to political science, economics, sociology, ethics, and
leadership studies. He defends the covenants written to various groups of

emanating from Prophet Muhammad himself, who assumed the responsibility
of protecting these groups and pledged that his followers would
do so until the last day: “This must not be violated or altered until the hour
[of the Resurrection] and the end of the world” (p. 236) ...
