Christians are the most important religious minority of Pakistan and their status and experience is a test case of the treatment of religious minorities in an Islamic state. This book covers new ground in exploring the various factors that govern the relations between Muslims and Christians in a nation state which has been politically unstable in the past, and where the imposition of Islamic law has been controversial and problematic for religious minorities. Theodore Gabriel clarifies the history of Christian-Muslim relations in the region, explores the rise of Islamic militancy, and draws on personal interviews to determine the mind set of both Christians and Muslims in Pakistan today.ChristiansPakistanChristianity and other religionsPakistanChristianity and other religionsIslamIslamRelationsChristianityChristiansChristianity and other religionsChristianity and other religionsIslam.IslamRelationsChristianity.297.2/83095491Gabriel Theodore P.
