The first Christians to meet Muslims were not Latin-speaking
Christians from the western Mediterranean or Greek-speaking
Christians from Constantinople but rather Christians from northern
Mesopotamia who spoke the Aramaic dialect of Syriac. Living under
Muslim rule from the seventh century to the present, Syriac
Christians wrote the first and most extensive accounts of Islam,
describing a complicated set of religious and cultural exchanges
not reducible to the solely antagonistic. Through its critical
introductions and new translations of this invaluable historical
material, When Christians First Met Muslims allows scholars,
students, and the general public to explore the earliest
interactions between what eventually became the world's two largest
religions, shedding new light on Islamic history and
Christian-Muslim relations.
