Why do Muslims riot, kill and destroy? Why do Christians riot, kill and destroy? Why should religion bring Nigeria constantly to the brink? Who is to blame for all this terror? Muslims? Christians? What are the causes for all this violence? These are the questions this book answers from the Muslim point of view. The monograph in your hand is the second in the series Studies in Christian-Muslim Relations. It covers extensively Muslim opinions and evaluations of Nigerian riots. An abundance of quotations allows Muslims to speak for themselves. Vol. 1 describes the Nigerian riots themselves. Vols. 3 will give the Christian perspective on these riots. Later volumes will deal with other issues that cause friction between the two religions. The overall aim of this series is to help both constituencies work towards a solution of which both will be proud.
