vol. 4 - Islam we współczesnej Afryce

The author indicates a great need to conduct dialog between Christians and Muslims. Exemplification of the problem is an example of Senegal and the activity of Polish Catholic missionaries there. Contemporary Senegal is described as a country of religion tolerance and the country of incessant religion dialogue. In spite of fact that Christians constitute not large group they possess the same rights as Muslims in Senegal. The basic form of dialogue is so-called dialogue of life which concerns an everyday life. The important form of dialogue between Christianity and Islam in Senegal is dialogue of mutual works (e.g. defence of ideas, social order, and charitable actions). Another form of conducting the dialogue applies to the sphere of theology, and is called experts dialogue. Christian - Islamic dialogue in Senegal takes place on two levels at the same time: between person with person and between communities. Author shows the positive role of Polish Catholic nuns in this process as teachers, nurses, form-tutors. Polish missionaries are well aware of the need to enter into dialogue with this significant religion. The issue is made easier by the tolerant attitude of the Senegalese. The author writes that "Senegal belongs to the few countries in the world, where followers of Islam and Christianity live together in peace".
