Abstract/Sommario: The Authhor studies a well-known Islamic scholar of India, much influenced by, though at times critical of, Mahatma Gandhi: Maulana Wahiduddin Khan. He establishes the foundation of dialogue in the spirituality of the sources of Islam, and shows that according to the Holy Qu'ran, the word Jihad does not stand for violent warfare but for the struggle every Muslim, indeed every person, should go through to remain obedient to God's Word
