The World of Islam in Biographical Relations: A Panorama of Problems (Educational Aspects)

Abstract

The article presents a panorama of biographical works, drawing pictures of life in Muslim communities. The stories were built by authors around several fundamental themes: conflicts in mixed marriages, experiences of specific violence in the Muslim family, persecution of dissenters, terror in the dominions under the rule of i.e. ISIS, Boko Haram, a terrorism and Islamic fanaticism danger. In addition, a large group of diaries take as a main theme the reform of Islam and conversions from Islam to Christianity. The image of the Islamic world that emerges from the diaries is a reality where violence motivated religiously and culturally is a basic problem. So the experience of violence or opposition to it is the main plot of all narrations. Primarily, the authors point to sharia – the religious law of Islam – as the main source of violent behaviour.
