Your Antecedent Topic for our One-day Islam-Christianity Event
Muslims and christens believe in a powerful God who created everything in the world.
In surah Al-A’raf (7:54)
إِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ يُغْشِي اللَّيْلَ النَّهَارَ يَطْلُبُهُ حَثِيثًا وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ وَالنُّجُومَ مُسَخَّرَاتٍ بِأَمْرِهِ ۗ أَلَا لَهُ الْخَلْقُ وَالْأَمْرُ ۗ تَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Surely your Lord is none other than Allah, who created the heavens and the earth in six days, and then ascended His Throne; Who causes the night to cover the day and then the day swiftly pursues the night; Who created the sun and the moon and the stars making them all subservient to His command.
The almighty God for Christians is called God, but it’s called Allah for Muslims. They may call different names, but they worship the same God. They also share the same ritual, which is called praying.
The Quran mentions the Torah, Psalms, and Gospel as being revealed by God in the same way the Quran was revealed to Muhammad (PBUH), the final prophet and messenger of God according to Muslims.
As we announced in our last news, the Department of Comparative Studies of Religions at DarulQuran Academy will hold an event centering on these two religious holy books, the Quran and the Bible.
Based on the survey results that got fulfilled with the help of all of you, DarulQuran one-day event’s main topic is Comparative ethics in Islam and Christianity (based on the Quran and the Bible).
The sub-titles of this meeting will be:
- The role of moral teachings of Islam and Christianity in our physical and mental health;
- The impression of the moral teachings of Islam and Christianity on our lifestyle;
- Semantics and conceptual analysis of moral teachings in the Quran and the Bible.
We can gladly announce that more than 200 professors and students worldwide have declared their readiness to attend this event.
Our keynote speaker will be Professor Rudolph Boshoff, a Rhema Bible College South Africa dean, and a South African Theological Seminary lecturer. He is pursuing his Master’s in Theology, specifically focusing on Islam. He will present his lecture on behalf of the Christianity religion in this conference.
Dr. Curtis Andrew Raisby, Associate Professor of Comparative Thought at Hiroshima University, Japan, has examined Japanese theories of ultimate explanation, such as the character of divinity, including practical ramifications. Correspondingly, he examines the dialogue between traditions and the potential contributions they can make to solving real problems in contemporary life.
And our guest speaker will be Ilies Sidlakhdar from France. He graduated with a master’s degree in London from Agha Khan University – Institute for the Studies of Muslim Civilisations.
