Project on New Directions
in Islamic Thought and Practice
 

 


In the entire Muslim world, including Muslim minorities in the West, many people experience tensions and discrepancies between their roles as citizens and their religious affiliation and identity. Urged to respond to contemporary challenges of toleration and solidarity they often miss the requisite theological and fiqh-based grounding and reference.

Many Muslim experts are already committed to respond to these challenges, but they are often isolated. Touching upon sensitive issues their possibilities for debate, publication and dissemination of ideas are also often limited.

The ambition of the Oslocoalition on Freedom of Religion or Belief is to facilitate such debate by creating a forum where Muslim reform thinkers may present and discuss ideas and develop strategies for further action.

The aim is a coherent and well grounded reform thinking that may facilitate a Muslim aggiornamento.
