You know, I've thought it before, and I'll say it here, the divisions within the Muslim world on such basic matters astound me. NOt even basic agreement on what is "sinful" (what a horrid word" and what isn't. Inter-faith dialogue is not the pressing issue it seems to me, but rather intra-faith dialgue in the Muslim world is the place to start.
Anyway, good on you PM. I can imagine that that must have been a bit of an awkward conversation for all, but it was a must.
