First source report
The Italian Episcopal Conference (CEI) and the Pontifical Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies (PISAI) presented 11 fact sheets designed to help people understand Islam during an event on October 21 at Palazzo Borromeo.
Cardinal Matteo Maria Zuppi, president of the CEI, described the resource, which was created by both Catholics and Muslims, as an antidote to violence and ignorance. The sheets aim to help people better understand one another within an increasingly pluralistic society.
The head of PISAI stated that studying the religion is necessary to counter a clash of civilizations. The materials are intended to help disarm prejudices and foster dialogue.
