Abstract

The paper, titled "The Need for Christian-Muslim Dialogue in Nigeria," is motivated by the religious crises that exist between Christians and Muslims, resulting in the loss of lives and property worth billions of naira for decades. Most recently, the northern parts of the country have experienced so many crises between Christians and Muslims. Therefore, there is a call for dialogue between these religions. The method adopted to gather and analyze the data in this research is the quantitative method, which is basically works written by scholars found in books, journals, and internet sources, and the researchers’ experiences. The study, which is anchored on the Christian-Muslim dialogue in Nigeria, discovered the associated challenges to the peaceful co-existence of Christians. The paper discovered that Christian-Muslim dialogue will lead to peaceful co-existence, interreligious and social harmony, interfaith unity, and religious unification, etc. One of the recommendations made in this paper is that Christians and Muslims should not ignore Biblical and Quranic teachings that form the ethics of their religions. Secondly, Christian-Muslim dialogue is the bane of understanding and peaceful co-existence in Nigerian society.

Abstract

Purity is a beautiful word that is pleasing to the eye, and a quality that everyone wishes to maintain. From an Islamic perspective, purity has a general meaning. Thus it may mean, on one hand, physical cleanliness which is the purity (of the body) from perceptible filth or ritual purification. On the other hand, it may mean spiritual purity which is the purity of the self from vices, sins and abandoning disobedience, and getting used to good deeds and words. Purity (Arabic: طهارة‎, ṭahāra is an essential aspect of Islam. It is the opposite of najāsa, the state of being ritually impure. It is achieved by first removing physical impurities (for example, urine) from the body, and then removing ritual impurity by means of wudu (usually) or ghusl. Rules which regulate the cleanliness rituals are placed both by Quranic requirements, and the rituals to acquire a new level of social status in everyday Muslim life. Physically, spiritually, ethically, and psychologically every Muslim must value cleanliness and purity. In this work, I investigate the concept of “purity” from the Islamic perspective. I argue that cleanliness and purity form an essential ideal in Muslim piety and consciousness. The Qur'an frequently refers to it.
