"The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."Reflection: When we look at Muslims we see much that is good: a deep reverence for the God of Abraham, their dedication to prayer and self-sacrifice, and their desire to serve God with their entire lives.
- CCC No. 841
Prayer: Father, salvation belongs to you alone. Be merciful when you judge my neighbor and my enemy.
