There is absolutely nothing to navigate. In every culture where there is majority Muslim, there is no peace for non-Muslims. That is a fact all over the world. When they are in the minority, they get along fine. As soon as they gain power, they try to impose their religious beliefs over non-Muslims, and therein lies the problem. The fact that Muslims can go to majority Christian nations and build mosques, but Christians can't easily establish churches in Muslim majority nations tells you everything you need to know. They are the only religious followers who fight for their god and prophet. Other religious followers ask their god and prophets to fight for them, not the other way around. That is what it boils down to. No Christian will threaten anyone who insults Christ and the Christian God because they believe Christ and the Christian God can fight for themselves. The Muslims on other hand, believe they, the human beings must fight for their prophet and their God because the two can't fight for themselves.

This is not analysis; it is a sweeping and bigoted generalization. Muslims are not a single political bloc, and the conduct of some governments or extremists cannot be attributed to every Muslim believer. Restrictions on churches in some Muslim-majority countries deserve criticism, just as restrictions or discrimination against mosques and Muslims in some Christian-majority countries deserve criticism. The relevant question is whether a state is a theocracy or a secular republic governed by equal citizenship and constitutional rights. Ghana is a secular republic, not a Christian state, regardless of its religious demographics. Finally, describing the Christian God with an uppercase “G” while reducing other faiths’ gods to lowercase reveals the hierarchy underlying your argument. Condemn violence and coercion wherever they occur—but do not turn prejudice into principle.
