Summary/Abstract: The exponential increase in the number of Muslims and the geographical and cultural expansion of Islam since the 7th century speak for themselves in terms of the importance of studies in this filed, especially today, when the still predominantly Christian or non-Muslim world tends to justify its own actions in the context of radical Islam and vice versa, Islamic studies and research have the task of promoting a transparent and objective approach and creating a scientific and knowledge-based environment for conflict resolution and dialogue.
