Canadian academic Dr. John Andrew Morrow has published a collection of ancient covenants between the Prophet Muhammad, the early Muslim community and Christians that guarantee respect, freedom of religion and the right to religious institutions. Morrow’s research has led to “The Covenants Initiative” a global campaign asking Muslim religious leaders to declare their agreement with the principles contained within the covenants. Morrow is the author of "The Covenants of the Prophet Muhammad with the Christians of the World", "Islamic Images and Ideas: Essays on Sacred Symbolism", and "Religion and Revolution: Spiritual and Political Islam in Ernesto Cardenal".

Nick Spencer, Research Director for Theos is the author of several Theos reports and a number of books, including Darwin and God, Freedom and Order: History, Politics and the English Bible and most recently Atheists: The Origin of the Species. He is Visiting Research Fellow at the Faiths and Civil Society Unit, Goldsmiths, University of London.

Journalist and educator, Abdul-Rehman Malik is Programmes Manager for the Radical Middle Way, an organisation that gives young Muslims the inspiration and tools to enable positive social change, promote social justice and combat exclusion and violence.
