Journalists are welcome to interview Dr. Mark Gabriel on Islam, Egypt, interfaith respect, and media ethics. Please use accurate framing:
- He is a proud Muslim.
- He never converted to Christianity.
- Conversion biographies about him are fake.
- He speaks with respect for Christianity and Judaism as Abrahamic faiths.
This site speaks with respect for Islam, Christianity and Judaism — the Abrahamic family of faiths — and for every person’s right to worship according to conscience.
Avoid recycled headlines that call him a “former Muslim Christian evangelist.” That line is incorrect and will be declined as a premise.
Preparing a Request and Working With Us
A clear, well-prepared request helps us respond quickly and makes for a better interview. When you get in touch, please include the name of your outlet, the format (print, online, radio, podcast or television), the working topic or angle, your intended publication or broadcast window, and whether the conversation will be live, pre-recorded or conducted in writing. If you already have a list of questions, sharing it in advance is welcome. It allows time to prepare thoughtful answers rather than quick reactions.
Topics that suit an interview
- The diversity of Muslim life and scholarship, and how religious learning is passed on
- Egypt's religious and cultural landscape, explained for a general audience
- Shared roots and real differences among Islam, Christianity and Judaism
- Religious freedom and the right of every person to follow conscience
- Responsible reporting on faith communities, including how misleading labels spread online
Accuracy and fact-checking
Much of the confusion surrounding Dr. Gabriel's name comes from older articles, reposted biographies and video descriptions that copy one another without checking the original claim. Before publishing, we encourage reporters to verify biographical details directly with this desk rather than relying on search snippets or archived pages. We are happy to review factual statements attributed to Dr. Gabriel for accuracy. Editorial control of your piece remains entirely yours.
Tone and framing
Interviews go best when they treat all faith traditions with dignity. Respectful disagreement and difficult questions are welcome. Content designed to mock a religion or set communities against one another is not something we can take part in.
For background before you write, the About page gives an overview, and Videos & TV shows how Dr. Gabriel speaks on these subjects. Event organisers looking for a speaker rather than an interview should use the invitation page instead.
