Muslims really honored Pope John Paul II since he made alot of progress in trying to build relationships between the Catholic-Christian community and the communities of other world religions, especially the Islamic religion. On a trip to the Ummayad Mosque in Syria, the supposed burial site of John the Baptist more familiar to Muslims as Prophet Yahya, Pope John Paul II was quoted as saying "It is my ardent hope that Muslim and Christian religious leaders and teachers will present our two great religious communities as communities in respectful dialogue, never more as communities in conflict." Pope John Paul II was also the first pope to kiss the Qu'ran and to enter a Muslim mosque Parvez Ahmed from United Press International said this of Pope John Paul II after he died "Many Muslims will rightfully remember Pope John Paul II as an advocate of justice, a bridge builder and a visionary leader. The Pope promoted his own faith without appearing condescending of others. Public figures who have espoused Islamophobic views in the past could borrow a page of tolerance from this great Christian leader."
