Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: There is a book in the offices of the da'wah for expatriate communities, translated into the Filipino language, titled (Dialogue Between a Muslim and a Christian). They placed the symbol of the cross and the symbol of the crescent and star on the book's cover as symbols for Christianity and Islam. His question is: Is there any religious prohibition in distributing this book in this form?
Answer:
First, regarding the dialogue, we do not know what its content is, nor have we seen it. It is necessary that this be examined. It must be sent to the department of scholarly research and ifta, and they should look into it, examine it, and write a report about it. Yes.
