Abstract

Religious tolerance is essential to develop a harmonious coexistence between members of a civilised multi-religious society. This notion is previously observed through a legal perspective, recognition and respect, as well as the absence of discrimination and religious conflict. However, this article looks at a different viewpoint, by utilising the dynamics of halal dining as an analytical tool to examine dimensions of religious tolerance. The study unpacks the religious tolerance experience in halal dining among Muslims and non-Muslims in Peninsular and East Malaysia. We compare the data of religious tolerance in halal dining from both Peninsular and East Malaysian experiences. Data was collected through quantitative surveys and interviews with Muslim and non-Muslim respondents. The findings show that Malaysians practise a high level of tolerance in dining with a few exceptions. These findings exhibit a new dimension of dining as a practical analytical tool, which might have hitherto been neglected in measuring religious tolerance within a multi-religious context.
从马来西亚清真餐饮体验看宗教宽容
宗教宽容是发展多宗教文明社会成员之间和谐共处的必要条件。这一概念以前是通过法律的角度来观察,承认和尊重,以及没有歧视和宗教冲突。然而,这篇文章着眼于一个不同的观点,通过利用清真餐饮的动态作为分析工具来检查宗教宽容的维度。该研究揭示了半岛和东马来西亚穆斯林和非穆斯林在清真饮食中的宗教宽容经验。我们比较了半岛和东马来西亚的清真饮食中宗教宽容的数据。数据是通过定量调查和对穆斯林和非穆斯林受访者的访谈收集的。调查结果显示,除了少数例外,马来西亚人在用餐时表现出高度的宽容。这些发现展示了饮食作为一种实用分析工具的新维度,这一点在衡量多宗教背景下的宗教容忍度时可能一直被忽视。
