Editor AWR: This view is expressed by Rekaya el-Hafi [Ruqayya al-Hāfī], a Tunisian humanitarian activist who was born and raised in a Muslim family but represents the Eglise Reformé de Tunis in its relation between the Tunisian government and civil society. Tunisia’s constitution advocates freedom of religion and thus Rekaya [Ruqayya] has been advocating against legal restraints on conversions in any direction and making mixed marriages between Muslims and Christians possible, not only between a Muslim man and a Christian woman which is accepted in Islam but also between a Christian man and a Muslim woman without enforcing conversions in any direction. Religion, in her view, should be fully free without any constraints so that people can make their own personal search for God. Read her thoughts below.
