Synopsis

Three Windows on Heaven is a remarkably inclusive book, bringing together Chief Rabbis alongside the Grand Mufti of Egypt's famous Al-Azhar University, and leading international Anglican and Catholic figureheads. The thought-provoking essays on interfaith dialogue penned by these leading religious thinkers are anchored in reference to the scriptures.

The quest to broaden and strengthen religious tolerance, in the face of an increasingly fragmented world, is a human imperative to which all of these contributors are passionately committed. The book is edited by Aly El Samman, President of the International Union for Intercultural and Interfaith Dialogue and Peace Education (ADIC).
