I have no difficulty in witnessing to people of different cultures other than language.
Simply treat them with kindness, dignity and respect even if you are at odds with their culture.
Traveling in foreign lands also helps to broaden the mind. Makes you appreciate that if you had been brought up in their circumstances you would probably think and act the way they do. I have worked with both Jews and Arabs in a supervisory capacity. The trick is not to let them know that.
I have also worked with Poles, Filipinos, Greeks, Germans, Italians, Pakistanis, Indians, Bangladeshis and Sikhs and on one occasion a Parsi, as an engine room manager of foreign crew vessels. I have witnessed and held bible studies with them. Frankly foreign crews are often much easier to work with than British crews who often act abusively and as if they are doing you a favour when they are only doing what they have been paid to do.
However I would say to the questioner, are you sure that the witness you are giving is up to date and not contaminated with pagan mythology as is the case with the majority of people who consider themselves to be 'Born again' especially those who wear their collars back to front in an attempt to assume their supposed superiority?

Ask yourself if you know the difference between Islam and Muslim.
Without help, I'll bet 95% of the American people does not know the answer.

So it's a tricky thing to want to be friends, yes some are sincere, like double helix said, but a lot are just out to trick you.

you just have to trust a bit more and give chance a choice to act upon.
yes, it's true extremist are really bad and that, but i don't think the normal ones would hate you or talk behind your back if your truly friends :)
anyways, muslims believe that god can't have kids. they believe he's a prophet, like a special messenger like noah, moses and others like them. and yes they do believe mohammad was the last prophet.
only christians believe that he's a son. WELL that's the confusing part, i have this debate with my muslim friend sometimes, the results are confusing :S. anyways only time will tell. i believe he's a son but :S :S :S

The answer to that is you can't. Muslims believe that Muhammed was Allah's (God's) last prophet and DENY that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. They agree He lived, but downgrade Him to a mere prophet.
