This book was released on 2014 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the place and nature of dialogue and engagement in conflictual interfaith relations through a multilayered study of political Islams impact on Christian-Muslim relations within the Nigerian sociopolitical and cultural context. By examining a contemporary phenomenon that is predicated on historical processes key issues and factors that undergird the religio-political fusion in Islam are clarified showing that this phenomenon is not unique to the Muslim religion but is common within those contemporary societies that have emerged or are emerging from primal or traditional societies. The time period studied includes the arrival of Islam and Christianity to those regions that now constitute Nigeria, particularly the northern region; the sacking of the Fulani Empire of Uthman dan Fodio by British colonial forces; the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern protectorates; the formation and subsequent colonization of Nigeria by the British Empire; independent Nigeria and the eventual adoption of Sharia by the governors of the predominantly Muslim geopolitical states of Northern Nigeria to the emergence of radical Islamic groups like Boko Haram. I employ two major research strategies 1) semi-structure d interviews and 2) the grounded theory approach of data analysis. Data have been collected via hist oriographical study, library research, and interviews. The view that the religio-political fusion in Islam and the missional nature of both Christianity and Islam necessitates a degree of particularism or universalism in the process of interfaith dialogue is challenged . The anthropological approach to interfaith engagement developed here suggests a departure from the universality or uniqueness of any religion and focuses rather on the cultural traditions from which religious traditions, in this instance Christianity and Islam, derive their meaning, and in which they play their roles hence, allowing one engage other religions, particularly in religiously pluralistic societies, in a context specific and culturally sensitive manner.

Book Synopsis Christian-Muslim Dialogue In Northern Nigeria by : Thaddeus Byimui Umaru
Download or read book Christian-Muslim Dialogue In Northern Nigeria written by Thaddeus Byimui Umaru and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion as a powerful impulse in human existence plays a paradoxical role in society as it both contributes significantly in shaping the spiritual, socio-political and economic lives of millions of people and also acts as a source of conflict. The sad experience of interreligious conflict in Northern Nigeria challenges the claim of Islam and Christianity to be religions of peace. However, understood as closely intertwined with culture and custom of a people, religion can be central in the establishment of peace and conflict resolution in and between communities. This text using the model of dialogue (Nostra Aetate) explores and presents the socio-political and theological resources available in Northern Nigeria (the locality) for a consistent peace building process.

Book Synopsis Muslims, why Muslim Sharia Law by : Jan Harm Boer
Download or read book Muslims, why Muslim Sharia Law written by Jan Harm Boer and published by Belleville, Ont. : Essence. This book was released on 2007-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series will eventually have eight volumes of a case study in Christian-Muslim relations. Each volume deals with a different aspect of these relations-violence, secularism, Muslim law and more from both Muslim and Christian perspectives. This volume is number six of the series and is third to present the Muslim voice. It explains why Muslims want to revive Muslim Law or Sharia. It is in line with their rejection of secularism. They are angry at how colonialism has consciously undermined their religion and has tried to replace it with what they consider a cheap and unrealistic secularism. Secularism is seen as the cause for the disintegration of Western culture. So why force it on others? Dr. Boer is an expert on colonialism and has lived in a Muslim environment for thirty years. This book and entire series is unique in that a Christian missionary tries to get into the heart of Muslims, to understand them sympathetically and, at times to go to bat for them. It is a serious challenge. About the Author Dr. Jan H. Boer (Ph.D.-Amsterdam) has worked in Nigeria for a total of thirty years. He has served the Institute of Church & Society, the Christian Health Association of Nigeria, the University of Jos, the Theological College of Northern Nigeria and the Christian Reformed Church of Nigeria. He has written significant books on economic and social issues in Nigeria. See his Web site www.SocialTheology.com. He continues research and writing in Vancouver, Canada, with occasional trips to Nigeria.

Book Synopsis Religion in Contemporary Nigeria by : Y.A. Quadri
Download or read book Religion in Contemporary Nigeria written by Y.A. Quadri and published by Adonis & Abbey Publishers Ltd. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dynamism of religion all over the world presupposes that discourse on it generally is a continuous exercise. As religion influences the environment of its operation so also is the influence of the environment on the practice of religion. Nigeria, a multi-religious nation has experienced and is still experiencing the positive as well the negative aspects of religious practices in her socio-political, economic and cultural spheres. There is no doubt that religion is manipulated by some people, which portray it in bad light and makes it vulnerable to criticisms despite the unanimity about its potential to be a force for good in the society. Recent developments in Nigeria indicate that religion has a role in the survival or otherwise of the country. Such include the re-introduction of Sharicah penal code in some states in the northern part of the country, the emergence of Islamic banks, proliferation of private faith-based tertiary institutions, emergence of different factions and sects in religions and the challenge of insurgency using religion as camouflage in the name of the Boko Haram. This book addresses contemporary issues in the use of religion in Nigeria. Its uniqueness lies in the calibre of notable scholars who contributed to it from various ethno-religious and geographical backgrounds. It contains the views of eminent scholars from Islam and Christianity and is jointly edited by experienced professors in the two faiths. The overall aim is to enhance better understanding of religion and to promote peaceful co-existence between and among adherents of the two religions.
