Nabil Haddad explains his understanding of coexistence and shares a story about an encounter he had with a Muslim Jordanian.
The Jordanian Interfaith Coexistence Research Center promotes interfaith dialogue and peaceful coexistence between Muslims and Christians. Nabil Haddad recounts his experience with a Muslim man who came to consult with him about inviting his Christian friends over for lunch during lent. The man wanted to return the kindness his Christian friends had shown to him during Ramadan when they invited him to their homes for the Iftar dinner. This activity of eating together ended up transforming into a big event called ‘a bite of coexistence’.
