Interreligious Relations between Muslims and People of other Faiths

传统的伊斯兰教法和神学发展了对其他信仰的人的广泛的负面立场。该项目以广泛的实地考察为基础，旨在了解当今澳大利亚、印度尼西亚、巴基斯坦和新加坡的著名穆斯林宗教领袖如何以及在多大程度上将这些消极立场转变为积极立场。该项目将使人们对这些国家未来宗教间和谐的潜力有一个基于证据的了解。由于积极的宗教间关系是国内、区域和全球对社会凝聚力及和平与安全的关切，该项目的成果将引起澳大利亚学者和决策者的极大兴趣。

Traditional Islamic law and theology developed a wide range of negative positions about people of other faiths. Based on extensive fieldwork, this project aims to understand how and to what extent prominent Muslim religious leaders are transforming these negative positions to positive ones today in Australia, Indonesia, Pakistan and Singapore. The project will lead to an evidence-based understanding of the potential for future interreligious harmony in these countries. Since positive interreligious relations are of domestic, regional and global concern for social cohesion and peace and security, the outcomes of this project will be of significant interest to both scholars and policymakers in Australia.
