Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is an excellent and rare exploration of a sensitive religious issue from many perspectives _ legal, cultural and political. The case studies from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand portray the important and exciting, yet very difficult, negotiation of Islamic teachings in the changing realities of Southeast Asia, home to the majority of Muslims in the world. Interreligious marriage is an important indicator of good relations between communities in religiously diverse countries. This book will also be of great interest to students and scholars of religious pluralism in a Southeast Asian context, which has not been studied adequately." - Zainal Abidin Bagir, Executive Director, Center for Religious and Cross-cultural Studies (CRCS), Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia "The issue of Muslim-non-Muslim marriages has different connotations in the different Southeast Asian states. For example, in Thailand it is more a fluid cultural issue but in Malaysia it reflects great racial schisms with severe legal implications. This book is a welcome one as it examines the issue not only from the perspectives of various Southeast Asian nations but also from so many angles; the legal, historical, social, cultural, anthropological and philosophical. The work is scholarly, yet accessible. Underlying it, there is a vital streak of humanism." - Azmi Sharom, Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Malaya

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book on the growing number of interfaith families raising children in two religions Susan Katz Miller grew up with a Jewish father and Christian mother, and was raised Jewish. Now in an interfaith marriage herself, she is one of the growing number of Americans who are boldly electing to raise children with both faiths, rather than in one religion or the other (or without religion). In Being Both, Miller draws on original surveys and interviews with parents, students, teachers, and clergy, as well as on her own journey, to chronicle this controversial grassroots movement. Almost a third of all married Americans have a spouse from another religion, and there are now more children in Christian-Jewish interfaith families than in families with two Jewish parents. Across the country, many of these families are challenging the traditional idea that they must choose one religion. In some cities, more interfaith couples are raising children with “both” than Jewish-only. What does this mean for these families, for these children, and for religious institutions? Miller argues that there are distinct benefits for families who reject the false choice of “either/or” and instead embrace the synergy of being both. Reporting on hundreds of parents and children who celebrate two religions, she documents why couples make this choice, and how children appreciate dual-faith education. But often families who choose both have trouble finding supportive clergy and community. To that end, Miller includes advice and resources for interfaith families planning baby-welcoming and coming-of-age ceremonies, and seeking to find or form interfaith education programs. She also addresses the difficulties that interfaith families can encounter, wrestling with spiritual questions (“Will our children believe in God?”) and challenges (“How do we talk about Jesus?”). And finally, looking beyond Judaism and Christianity, Being Both provides the first glimpse of the next interfaith wave: intermarried Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist couples raising children in two religions. Being Both is at once a rousing declaration of the benefits of celebrating two religions, and a blueprint for interfaith families who are seeking guidance and community support.

This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in the Social Scientific Study of Religion, Volume 31: A Diversity of Paradigms' showcases two approaches to the socio-scientific study of religion. It includes a special section within which authors draw on data collected about congregational life in the Australian National Church Life Surveys (from 1991 to present). These studies give voice to minority groups and children. While findings include the strengths of ethnic diversity and the positive experiences of young churchgoers, they also highlight that full inclusion in local church life is far from being realized. A second section explores the application of feminist approaches within the sociology of religion. In their struggle for equality for women, feminist scholars developed methodologies to challenge the marginality of any ?othered? group. This section showcases how use of these methods challenges hierarchies within knowledge.

Download or read book Muslim Marriage and Non-Marriage written by Julie McBrien and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-09 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unconventional Muslim marriages have been topics of heated public debate. Around the globe, religious scholars, policy makers, political actors, media personalities, and women’s activists discuss, promote, or reject unregistered, transnational, interreligious and other boundary-crossing marriages. Couples entering into such marriages, however, often have different concerns from those publicly discussed. Based on ethnographic research in Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and Asia, the chapters of this volume examine couples’ motivations for, aspirations about, and abilities to enter into these marriages. The contributions show the diverse ways in which such marriages are concluded, and inquire into how they are performed, authorized or contested as Muslim marriages. These marriages may challenge existing ties of belonging and transform boundaries between religious and other communities, but they may also, and sometimes simultaneously, reproduce and solidify them. Building on insights from different disciplines, both from the social sciences (anthropology, political science, gender and sexuality studies) and from the humanities (history, Islamic legal studies, religious studies), the authors address a wide range of controversial Muslim marriages (unregistered, interreligious, transnational, etc.), and include the views of religious scholars, state authorities, and political actors and activists, as well as the couples themselves, their families, and their wider social circle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the ideals of liberation theology from the perspectives of major religious traditions, including Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and the neo-Vedanta and Advaita Hindu traditions. The goal of this volume is not to explain the Christian liberation theology tradition and then assess whether the non-Christian liberation theologies meet the Christian standards. Rather, authors use comparative/interreligious methodologies to offer new insights on liberation theology and begin a dialogue on how to build interreligious liberation theologies. The goal is to make liberation theology more inclusive of religious diversity beyond traditional Christian categories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians and Muslims, bound together in a dialogue of life, give expression to the wideness of God's hospitality and grapple with the difficulties as well as the richness and promises that a shared life brings. In a world where religious and cultural differences often lead to conflict it has become increasingly important to search for missiological responses that can assist in the building of inclusive communities and forging of bonds of respect and understanding. Helen Richmond draws on the lived experience of Muslims and Christians in interfaith marriages in Indonesia and Australia, whose lives embody a living dialogue between two religious traditions, to offer a fresh approach to our understanding of Christian mission and Muslim da'wah. The narratives and testimonies of the couples in this study invite the question of whether Muslims and Christians who have viewed each other as intimidating opponents might instead regard each The narratives and testimonies of the couples in this study invite the question of whether Muslims and Christians who have viewed each other as intimidating opponents might instead regard each other as fellow pilgrims and partners in God's work in the world. This book makes a substantive contribution to theological, and specifically missiological knowledge and will make an important point of reference for further research in the area of interfaith marriage in particular and to wider issues of Christian mission and interfaith engagement more widely. There is much that can be quarried from this insightful study. Professor Douglas Pratt, University of Waikato Helen Richmond demonstrates considerable originality in the subject area and in the methodology used in field research and interactions with the couples interviewed. She has the advantage of being fluent in Indonesian thereby having access to the worlds of Indonesian-language couples. The work she has done on the history of Islam and Christianity in Indonesia and Australia in relation to marriage is impressive and her arguments are cogent and clear. Professor James Haire School of Theology, Charles Sturt University Precisely at a moment of growing distrust between religious communities this book brings to light a world of intimacy between the two faith communities. Enduring interfaith marriages in which at least one partner is an active faith practitioner are rare, but they do form the ultimate meeting ground between the two great missionary traditions. The idea of looking at the vexed problem of Christian-Muslim relations through the lens of interfaith marriage is a courageous one and a metaphor that is rich with theological possibilities. Even more courageous was the author's decision to adopt a wholly ecumenical missiological approach, that is, one that takes both religions equally seriously and moreover takes at face value the often troubling desire of each to try and convert the other. Professor Gerry van Klinken, Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies (KITLV), Leiden Helen Richmond is a minister in the Uniting Church in Australia with considerable experience of working cross-culturally. She has had a long connection with Indonesia and her extended family which includes Muslims and Christians is a snap shot of the religious diversity of our times. For six years Helen worked as a Tutor in Mission Studies at the United College of the Ascension, Selly Oak, Birmingham, UK. She has served as the National Director for Multicultural and Cross-cultural Ministry in her church and for the last six years has been a Theology Teacher at Nungalinya College, an Indigenous training center in Darwin.
