‘A general misconception about dialogue’ - How an imam got talking with Pope Francis

The Ahmadiyya Muslims are a community of around 12 to 15 million Muslim believers, who — because they believe in a Muslim messiah named Mirza Ghulam Ahmad — are considered heretical by mainstream Islam, and severely persecuted in many Muslim-majority countries.Ahmadiyya Imam Marwan Gill is leader of the Ahmadiyya movement in Argentina. Since becoming involved in interreligious dialogue, Gill has met Pope Francis twice, and is set to visit the Holy Father a third time this week, to present the pope his recent book about interreligious dialogue.

Gill spoke with The Pillar about his experience with Pope Francis, what he has learned from him, and the impact it has had on his vision of Catholicism.

The interview was conducted in English, but has been edited for length and clarity.
