Religious live in the Near East is still characterized by cultic practice. In the case of Islam it is embedded in a ceremonial body language considered to be the most distinctive expression of Islamic identity. It is performed privately as well as in public space. The high significance of this both cultic and identity political self-expression of the Islamic religion is being realized more recently. Yet, a comprehensive study of its origin and historical development is still missing.The Qur'an's recitation practice clearly points to an origin from a milieu which was shaped by Oriental Church Music. This form of vocal practice itself is widely unexplored, but what is agreed upon is that both forms of recitation with a cantilena, that of the Qur'an and that of the Oriental churches, are built on a similar set of rules related to music, grammar and rhetoric. For that reason both traditions need to be studied in tandem. Due to favorable circumstances two highly qualified researchers at Freie Universität being prepared to carry out this collaborative venture and the overdue project can finally be realized.

近东的宗教生活仍然以邪教活动为特点。在伊斯兰教中，它被嵌入到一种仪式的肢体语言中，被认为是伊斯兰身份最独特的表达。它在私人和公共空间都可以表演。伊斯兰宗教的这种崇拜和认同政治自我表达的高度意义最近才得到认识。然而，对其起源和历史发展的全面研究仍然缺失。《古兰经》的背诵实践清楚地指出，它的起源受到东方教会音乐的影响。这种形式的声乐练习本身尚未被广泛探索，但人们一致认为，两种形式的诵读，古兰经和东方教堂的诵读，都建立在一套相似的规则上，这些规则与音乐、语法和修辞有关。因此，这两种传统需要同时研究。由于有利的环境，两名高素质的研究人员在Freie Universität正准备开展这项合作企业和逾期的项目最终可以实现。
