Do we congratulate Muslims on Sugar Feast? Or do we wish them a good Ramadan? Do we expect them to respect Christmas? “It is not a matter of which belief is the right one”, emphasises Wolfgang Weirer, religious education expert. “It is a matter of talking to each other.” Then we can find out that there is a ray of truth in every conviction and that we can meet each other peacefully and appreciatingly. And yes, the Christ Child will visit Ahmed, so to speak. “In the Islamic belief Jesus plays a roll as a prophet”, Weirer explains.
