Denkschrift
zum historischen Entwicklungsprozess und zur Beendigung der Kooperation der Hessischen Landesregierung mit der DITIB den islamischen Religionsunterricht betreffend

No.  269 (2020)

Von Fuat Kurt[1] und Hüseyin Kurt[2]

Der bekenntnisorientierte Islamische Religionsunterricht nach Artikel 7.3 GG in der Verantwortung des DITIB Landesverbandes Hessen ist vom Hessischen Kultusministerium einseitig beendet worden.

Auch uns als Ko-Architekten dieses Unterrichts von islamischer Seite hat diese unerwartete Entwicklung außerordentlich betroffen gemacht. Was uns hierbei besonders nachdenklich macht, ist, dass bestimmte Personen und Organisationen, die im Prozess der Anerkennung des DITIB Landesverbandes als Religionsgemeinschaft und der Einführung des bekenntnisorientierten Islamischen Religionsunterrichts von Anfang an versucht haben, diesen „No. 269“ weiterlesen

INTER-RELIGIOUS DIALOGUE: AN EXPLORATION

The entire humankind wishes that peace prevails in the world, but, as a theologian[i] has said, peace can prevail in the world only if there is peace among religions.   This argument implies that for peace to prevail there must be dialogue – greater and meaningful – among different religions and an investigation of their foundations.  Dialogue among different religions of the „No. 268“ weiterlesen

Guru Nanak’s Response to Religious Plurality

No. 263 (2020)

By Dharam Singh

Religious plurality is not a newly emerged phenomenon rather it has been a reality of human social existence ever since recorded human history. The only difference is that it  was  not experienced with the same intensity as it is being experienced in the world today. Also, the human perception of it has changed a lot during the past century or so. In the ancient past people belonging to different religious backgrounds lived in their limited geographical universes. As a result, they did not face the social or theological challenges arising from „No. 263“ weiterlesen

Einleitung

Generell lässt sich sagen, dass die islamische Ideengeschichte auf drei Säulen beruht. Diese sind: Kalām (systematische Theologie), Sufismus und die islamische Philosophie. Auch wenn ihre Referenzen, Terminologien und Schlussfolgerungen voneinander abweichen, diskutieren alle drei Disziplinen ähnliche Themen. Die islamische Philosophie etablierte im Laufe der Zeit ihre eigene Tradition, die sich besonders in den intellektuellen
