| Summary: | This essay shares some of the aspects of my research on “An Islamic Approach to Rehabilitation of Muslim Prisoners: An Empirical Case Study.” Interfaith dialogue can help to explore therapeutic/rehabilitative aspects of faith; it can also be used to engage with the Narrative of Radical Extremism in order to produce a mature understanding of faith among Muslim youth. However, there are many misconceptions, concerns, and questions about interfaith dialogue within the Muslim community—particularly with Muslim prisoners—that need to be carefully understood, explored, and answered through a dialogical approach, not through debate. This essay can be understood as a first step toward such a strategy. |
