Project Noon is a forum dedicated to exploring modes of inter-religious dialogue across South Asian socio-religious traditions. We seek, in particular, to bring scholarship from the two academic fields of Islamic Studies and Hindu Studies into creative conversation with each other. We aim to understand a particular tradition on its own terms, as articulated by its leading scholars, and without seeking prematurely to subsume it under the categories of the other tradition. This practice of dialogical hospitality entails curating contemporary academic scholarship for an interested general audience. Additionally, as we strive to bring diverse traditions into conversation with each other, we seek to retain the creative tension that such comparative work demands in the hope that through inhabiting this ‘liminal space’ (dihliz), we can creatively develop new languages and sensibilities for inter-religious dialogue for our future.
