In Christ, we can and should be passionate when talking with Muslims.
What should we should share.
About our faith in Christ:
We have a certain hope of love, forgiveness from God
We know the Living God who has defeated death in Christ
Because God Himself is Just (1 Jn 1:9), and He will wipe away every tear at injustice

Hospitality (Romans 12:13), humor and JOY in God (Zephaniah 3:17)
The difference between man and woman from the Bible (Gen 1:27); Christian marriage’s picture (Eph 5:25-31)

Honor instead of shame, 1 Peter 1:7 - Honor for those who hold fast to faith in Christ
Forgiveness from God at the cross (Ephesians 1:7)
Emmanuel (Matthew 1:23), who answers prayers (John 15:1-7)
