Religious Tolerance
18.11.2024
A lesson on "Religious Tolerance: Tolerance as an Important Foundation of Peoples' Friendship" was held with the students of group 108 from the "Economics" Faculty of the *Tashkent Institute of Irrigation and Agricultural Mechanization Engineers* National Research University. The aim of the lesson was to provide students with information on the historical foundations of tolerance in Uzbekistan, introduce them to interpretations of social tolerance in the works of our ancestors, and educate them about the legal foundations of ethnic and social tolerance in Uzbekistan. It was emphasized that the relations between the state and religion in Uzbekistan are based on three main principles: religious tolerance, interethnic harmony, and freedom of conscience.
At the end of the lesson, we concluded with a short training session titled “Do You Know the Meaning of Your Name?”. In this exercise, each student was asked to explain the meaning of their name to their neighbor. Some students searched for it online, while others looked it up in books. In Islam, it is the responsibility of parents to give a beautiful name to their newborn. Each name carries meaning, and may we all live up to the meaning of our names.
