(**) “Towards a genuine brotherhood between Christians and Muslims” ( sic! ) is the title of the Post that the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, addressed to the faithful of Islam to the end of Ramadan (Id al- H./2014 Fitr 1435 AD).
The document is signed by Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, President of the Council, and the Father Miguel Ángel Ayuso Guixot MCCJ, Secretary of the Pontifical Council.
Recalling that in 2013, the first year of his Petrine ministry, the Holy Father Francis had personally signed the message on the occasion of ‘Id-al Firt, Cardinal Tauran also cites the Angelus of 11 August 2013, in which the Pope had greeted Muslims as “our brothers”!!!! (sic!)

In fact, Christians and Muslims are brothers and sisters in one human family, created by the one God. ‘
