“Understanding Faith to Build a United Humanity”

Introduction: The Interfaith Imperative

Religions shape civilizations, ethics, and identities—yet division persists. This faculty equips students to study world religions objectively, fostering dialogue, critical thinking, and mutual respect. Whether you’re a believer, skeptic, or scholar, explore how spiritual traditions address life’s deepest questions.

Our Philosophy:

  • Academic Neutrality: Analyze scriptures, histories, and practices without doctrinal bias.
  • Shared Values: Highlight intersections in ethics, justice, and human dignity across faiths.
  • Quranic Lens: Special emphasis on Islam’s engagement with other traditions (e.g., “There is no compulsion in religion” [Quran 2:256]).

“O humankind, We created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes so that you may know one another.” (Quran 49:13)
