St. Nikolai Serbsky
You are one God, and there is no other God besides You. That's what we Christians say, and that's what Muslims say too. But the Muslims reached halfway and closed the gates in front of them. They closed the gates before the Holy Truth that You, God, are Trinity in the unity of Your spiritual existence. And they closed the gates before the testimony of Your visit to the world through Your incarnate Wisdom, as well as before the testimony of Your love for people, shown on the Cross.
As far as the month is high above the earth, Islam is higher than idolatry. But the month does not have light in itself, but shines with the reflected light of the sun, so Islam, in that which has light (in itself), borrowed from the Truth revealed to the world by Your Son Jesus Christ.
You wanted, O God, in Your goodness, for man to be not a slave, but a son of You, and that he, like a son, would learn the divine secrets of Your being and Your love. The Islamic “prophet” turned the slaves of stone idols into slaves of the one God, and Your Son Jesus made the slaves Your sons.
Our Three-Bright God, have mercy on all the Mohammedan peoples, for they too believe in Your mercy. They lived long enough as servants before You; now make them Your sons. Move them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may know and see their Savior in Christ. Open the gates that are closed halfway, so that they will see the sky opened by Christ and their Heavenly Father in heaven. So that many millions of Muslim souls with many millions of Christian souls may unite in the thought of You, in love for You and in glorifying You, the only living God in the Trinity light, through the prayers of all the saints who (from ancient times and) to this day have passed from Islam to Christianity, and who now glorify You in Heaven in the choir of Your angels and saints. Amen.
