Fraternidade Humana em prol da paz e da convivência comum

: um desafio para o diálogo inter-religioso e pastoral

Abstract

Inter-religious dialogue is one of the challenges in the field of religious pluralism today, necessary for a good co-existence between believers of different religious traditions. Vatican II Council, through the declaration Nostra Aetate, was decisive in the Church's relationship with non-Christian religions. In this line, Catholic Christians and Muslims have strengthened ties of collaboration and dialogue in respect and in otherness. It is in this dynamic of openness, dialogue, and collaboration that Pope Francis and the Great Imam of Al-Azhar Aḥmad Al-Ṭayyib signed the declaration Human Fraternity for World Peace and Common Co-existence. This document reinforced the need for collaboration between the two religions, pointing out paths for common pastoral action, in the field of peace and defense of human dignity, in education and health, in family and youth pastoral care, in pastoral hospitality and migration, in the protection of creation and the environment, and in the field of the media.
