Symbiosis Project with Muslim
The aim of the seminar is to deepen the understanding of Islam in Japanese society and to implement projects aimed at coexistence with Muslims living in Japan and those visiting Japan as tourists.
Currently, the number of Muslims in the world is about 1.6 billion, and one out of every four people in the world is a Muslim, and the population is increasing. The number of Muslims living in Japan to study or to work and the number of Muslims visiting Japan for sightseeing are also increasing year by year. On the other hand, the image of Islam in Japan is not always good, and Japanese people do not fully understand Islam. In this seminar, students will deepen the understanding of the teachings of Islam and the religious practices of Muslims through literature reading, while conducting fieldwork and joint projects to build a network with Muslims living in Japan, connect Japanese society and Muslims, and consider new forms of coexistence in Japan.
