Comparative Religions

To create co-existence between people in all religions and communities by clearing the questions and facing challenges that arise from this difficult venture to spread Islam worldwide, this unit was created by Al Usthad M.I.M Hanifa (Bahji).
As the Sinhalese community is the largest in Sri Lanka, with the help of this unit we hope to be able to enlighten them about Islam. Supportive help for this work is also provided.
