Faculty of Comparative Religions
“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)
