Muslim Responds Thankfully to Mormon Website

We help members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormon church) share their beliefs on the Internet. Learn more about what Mormons believe or talk with Mormons at LDS.net.
Mormonchurch.com is an unofficial interactive question/answer website about Mormon life and beliefs. The website is called “Mormonchurch.com” since friends of other faiths frequently use those terms when they Google Mormons. (The correct name of the church is actually The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.)
A Muslim woman, after visiting the website, shared her gratitude for the tenor and approach Mormons maintain on the site. She had read a post by Brian Haiglud on how Mormons view Mohammud:
Thank you so much for that. As a Muslim, it is a beautiful thing when people of one faith acknowledge another’s faith without bashing, but rather, with understanding, and I am very happy that instead of finding in other sites anti-Islamic thoughts, here you depicted a positive image, and I do believe we can all live in brotherhood, with both our similarities and differences. We are all God’s creatures, and to Him we shall all return, and it is best when we show Him that we all did our best to maintain peace with one another. As Islam teaches us, God had said He ‘created you from a single pair of a male and a female and made you unto nations and tribes [not so that you may despise each other but) SO THAT YOU MAY KNOW EACH OTHER.’ (Sally)
