    Description

    With almost all major religions being practiced throughout the country, India is known for its religious diversity. Islam makes up the highest share among minority faiths in the country. According to the Indian census of 2011, the Muslim population in Uttar Pradesh more than 35 million, making it the state with the most Muslims.

    Socio-economic conditions of Muslims
    Muslims seem to lag behind every other religious community in India in terms of living standards, financial stability, education and other aspects, thereby showing poor performance in most of the fields. According to a national survey, 17 percent of the Muslims were categorized under the lowest wealth index, which indicates poor socio-economic conditions.

    Growth of Muslim population in India
    Islam is one of the fastest-growing religions worldwide. According to India’s census, the Muslim population has witnessed a negative decadal growth of more than 16 percent from 1951 to 1960, presumably due to the partitions forming Pakistan and Bangladesh. The population showed a positive and steady growth since 1961, making up 14 percent of the total population of India . Even though people following Islam were estimated to grow significantly, they would still remain a minority in India compared to 1.3 billion Hindus by 2050.

    Description

    Religion and Bangladesh

    Religion in Bangladesh is a sensitive issue, mostly because Bangladesh is officially a secular state but recognizes Islam as an official, state religion. Historically and doctrinally, Islamic scholars don’t accept nations that are secular because they think that religion, society and private life are all part of the great community they like to call ‘umma’.

    The main religion in Bangladesh is Islam because it is practiced by almost 90 percent of the country’s population. The rest of 10 percent adhere to Hinduism. The type of Islam that is practiced in Bangladesh is Sunni Islam with a lot of Sufi influences. Sunni is the most numerous branch of Islam in the world. Countries like Egypt and Saudi Arabia have Sunni majority populations. The Sufi practices that influence the Islamic religion in Bangladesh are commonly known as mysticism. Sufi followers are poor men that don’t eat, don’t drink and spend their days in deep prayer in order to achieve spiritual connection with God.

    Bangladesh has the fourth largest Muslim population in the world, with over 130 million followers, right after Indonesia, Pakistan and India. In its constitution, Bangladesh is recognized as a secular state. For a short period of time, when Bangladesh was under Pakistani rule, Islam was made the state’s official religion. But the Supreme Court or High Court of Bangladesh ruled that Bangladesh must return to the principles of the 1972 constitution, meaning that it mustn’t have an official religion.

    The problem with Islam gaining too much power in Bangladesh is that it unbalances the genders issues. Islamic edicts or fatwas have been issued mostly against women by religious courts as punishments for their nonreligious behavior. Global NGO’s are fighting such edicts in order to maintain a fair judgment when it comes to men and women. Bangladesh is a country where gender issues, as well as religious issues are very sensitive subjects.

    Description

    Mali is a predominantly Muslim country with 94.84 percent of the population belonging to Islam. Of that 94.84 percent, only 0.8 percent is Shi’a versus the greater majority of Sunni Muslims in the country. While most of the population is Muslim, a small minority practice other religions as well; 2.37 percent Christianity, 2.02 percent Animist, 0.04 percent Other, 0.45 percent Atheist/Agnostic, and 0.28 percent Undeclared. Of the 2.37 percent of Christians in Mali, the majority of those are Roman Catholic. The Catholic Church has six dioceses that make up less than two percent of Mali’s population. Mali is typically defined as a secular state, with a constitution and code of laws that protect the public’s right for religious freedom and practice.

    While the Malian government is officially secular, it frequently consults the moderate High Council of Islam (HCIM) and the Committee of Wise Men on controversial social issues of national scope. The HCIM is an umbrella organization with representatives from all significant Muslim organizations in-country as well as over 160 non-governmental organizations. The Committee of Wise Men includes the Catholic Archbishop and prominent Malian Protestant and Muslim leaders. In an effort to enshrine its commitment to multi-faith democracy, the Malian government has declared a diverse set of religious holidays as national holidays, including Mawloud, the Prophet’s Baptism, Easter Monday, Eid al- Fitf, Tabaski, and Christmas.

    Religion is not taught in any public school in Mali. There are some private schools and madrasas that do offer both Christian and Islamic teachings in addition to the state-mandated secular curriculum. In Mali, most madrasas are located in the south in areas such as Sikasso (600), Segou (428), and Bamako (268). In the northern regions of Mali there are a little over 300 madrasas.

    In recent months, a loose coalition of militant Tuareg and Islamist groups, including al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), Ansar Dine, the Movement for Unity and Jihad in West Africa (MUJAO), and the Azawad National Liberation Movement (MNLA), has taken over northern Mali with the goal of forming an Islamic state in the Trans-Sahara region. Areas under militant control have seen the imposition of strict Sharia law, including bans on music and severe restrictions on women and practitioners of non-Islamic faiths. In Timbuktu and other northern urban centers, different Islamic groups have destroyed numerous ancient Sufi mosques, tombs, and other artifacts in an effort to purge the region of “heretical” faiths.

    Description

    Roughly 85 percent of Guinea’s population is Muslim, primarily of the Sunni school. Muslims constitute a majority in all four geographic regions. Christians, mostly Roman Catholic, comprise an 8 percent minority and are situated primarily in Conakry and eastern parts of the Forest Region.Other Christian denominations include Anglicans, Baptists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Seventh-Day Adventists, and various evangelical subgroups. Approximately 7 percent of inhabitants, located principally in the Forest Region, adhere exclusively to indigenous religious beliefs. Islam was introduced in Guinea in the 17th century in what is now the country’s northeast. Starting in the late 1720s, the Fulani ethnic group established a theocratic Muslim state in the mountainous Fouta Djallon region. The Fulani created an ethnoreligious social hierarchy which relegated non-Muslims to the lowest rungs of the social ladder. Though the state was ultimately assimilated into Guinea-proper, the Fulani have remained the country’s most ardent Muslim population, ahead of the Mandinka subgroup of the Mandé people. The non-Muslim Soso people were gradually pushed out of the Fouta Djallon due to Fulani oppression. The majority migrated to coastal parts of Lower Guinea between the 17th and 20thcenturies; an area comprised of the prefectures Boke, Boffa, Conakry, Coyah, Dubreka, Fria, Forecariah, Kindia, and Telimele. Roman Catholic missionaries made inroads into Soso communities following their (the Soso’s) establishment of trade ties with Europe. Many Guinean children, particularly in the Fouta Djallon region attend Islamic schools, which combine the government’s secular curriculum with Quranic studies. More devout Muslims student may enroll at a madrassah, or mosque school, which typically forego French for Arabic as the language of instruction, and adhere exclusively to a religious studies curriculum. Though Guinea’s constitution guarantees religious freedom, Islam enjoys demographic, social, and cultural dominance. In the past some Guineans have claimed the government favors Muslims in its policies, citing the cancellation of classes at publicly funded universities in accommodation of Friday prayers. Despite these and other reports of social discrimination against non-Muslims, religious freedoms are generally respected in the country.

    Description

    Two dominant explanations for ethnic bias in distributional outcomes are electoral incentives and outgroup prejudice. The paper proposes a novel, complementary explanation for this phenomenon: variation in legibility across ethnic groups. I argue that states will allocate fewer resources to groups from which they cannot gather accurate information and collect taxes. I support this argument using original data on state aid during the 1891-92 famine in the Russian Empire. Qualitative and quantitative analyses show that districts with a larger Muslim population experienced higher famine mortality, but received less generous public assistance. Historically ruled via religious intermediaries, the Muslims were less legible and generated lower fiscal revenues. State officials could not guarantee the repayment of food loans or collect tax arrears from Muslim communes, so they were more likely to withhold aid. State relief did not vary with the presence of other minorities, which were more legible and generated more revenue.

    Measurement technique
    The interviews were in semi-structured format. Unfortunately, consent was not obtained for audio recording of the interviews. There were 20 principal interviews with Russian elites in academia and politics and among Muslim communities in Russia; in Moscow, Tatarstan and Dagestan.
    Description

    The project had two main dimensions: the first is theoretical and the second is empirical, focusing on three case studies (Moscow, Tatarstan and Dagestan). The theoretical aspect of the project examines two main sets of questions: First, how the general concepts of extremism and moderation, and the associated concept of radicalization, are understood in the Russian context. How is radicalization linked to identity politics(ethnicity, nationalism and religion) and radical ideological movements? Second, how these concepts - moderation, extremism, and radicalization- applied in discourses and policies towards Muslim communities in Russia? What are the presumed internal and external influences? What are the comparisons and links with elite discourse in other European countries with significant Muslim communities, such as UK and France?

    The empirical aspect of the project examines how these general concepts and approaches help to illuminate and explains developments in regions of Russian where there exist sizeable Muslim communities. The three case studies chosen include a) the city of Moscow, where it is estimated that there are 1-2 million Muslims, representing at least 10% of the population; b) Tatarstan, which has an ethnic Tatar Muslim plurality and which is often taken to be the best example of the influence of moderate Islam; c) Dagestan, which is regularly taken to be the region with the greatest potential danger, apart form Chechnya, of Islamic radicalization.

    The dataset was originally intended to include transcriptions of elite interviews which would have been in the format of elite interview-audio files. However, as we warned might be the case, it did not prove possible to gain consent to recording the interviews.

    This project investigates the causes of Islamic radicalisation within Russia and their consequences for Russia's relevant domestic policies (for example ethnic, regional, immigration policies, and domestic democratisation), as well as its foreign policy response towards the Muslim world in the context of the global 'War on Terror'. There are four principal research questions:(1) How Russian policy-making and academic elites conceptualise the idea of 'radicalisation' and political violence. (2) How these discourses are translated into state practice and policy. (3) How these state-driven practices feed or undermine underlying processes of radicalisation. (4) How Russia's domestic context of combating radicalisation drives its foreign policy. The project methodology includes a discourse analysis of academic and journalistic writings and three regional case studies of Russian state policy towards Islam (Moscow, Tatarstan and Dagestan). Each case study relies on discourse analysis of public and media approaches, content analysis of relevant legal and state policy documents, and semi-structured elite interviews. The project co-ordinators will work with local institutes in Russia and will invite scholars from these institutes to the UK as research fellows. The project findings will be disseminated by four journal articles, policy briefings and a co-authored monograph.

    Description

    IndQNER

    IndQNER is a Named Entity Recognition (NER) benchmark dataset that was created by manually annotating 8 chapters in the Indonesian translation of the Quran. The annotation was performed using a web-based text annotation tool, Tagtog, and the BIO (Beginning-Inside-Outside) tagging format. The dataset contains:

    3117 sentences

    62027 tokens

    2475 named entities

    18 named entity categories

    Named Entity Classes

    The named entity classes were initially defined by analyzing the existing Quran concepts ontology. The initial classes were updated based on the information acquired during the annotation process. Finally, there are 20 classes, as follows:

    Allah

    Allah's Throne

    Artifact

    Astronomical body

    Event

    False deity

    Holy book

    Language

    Angel

    Person

    Messenger

    Prophet

    Sentient

    Afterlife location

    Geographical location

    Color

    Religion

    Food

    Fruit

    The book of Allah

    Annotation Stage

    There were eight annotators who contributed to the annotation process. They were informatics engineering students at the State Islamic University Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta.

    Anggita Maharani Gumay Putri

    Muhammad Destamal Junas

    Naufaldi Hafidhigbal

    Nur Kholis Azzam Ubaidillah

    Puspitasari

    Septiany Nur Anggita

    Wilda Nurjannah

    William Santoso

    Verification Stage

    We found many named entity and class candidates during the annotation stage. To verify the candidates, we consulted Quran and Tafseer (content) experts who are lecturers at Quran and Tafseer Department at the State Islamic University Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta.

    Dr. Eva Nugraha, M.Ag.

    Dr. Jauhar Azizy, MA

    Dr. Lilik Ummi Kultsum, MA

    Evaluation

    We evaluated the annotation quality of IndQNER by performing experiments in two settings: supervised learning (BiLSTM+CRF) and transfer learning (IndoBERT fine-tuning).

    Supervised Learning Setting

    The implementation of BiLSTM and CRF utilized IndoBERT to provide word embeddings. All experiments used a batch size of 16. These are the results:

    Maximum sequence length Number of e-poch Precision Recall F1 score

    256 10 0.94 0.92 0.93

    256 20 0.99 0.97 0.98

    256 40 0.96 0.96 0.96

    256 100 0.97 0.96 0.96

    512 10 0.92 0.92 0.92

    512 20 0.96 0.95 0.96

    512 40 0.97 0.95 0.96

    512 100 0.97 0.95 0.96

    Transfer Learning Setting

    We performed several experiments with different parameters in IndoBERT fine-tuning. All experiments used a learning rate of 2e-5 and a batch size of 16. These are the results:

    Maximum sequence length Number of e-poch Precision Recall F1 score

    256 10 0.67 0.65 0.65

    256 20 0.60 0.59 0.59

    256 40 0.75 0.72 0.71

    256 100 0.73 0.68 0.68

    512 10 0.72 0.62 0.64

    512 20 0.62 0.57 0.58

    512 40 0.72 0.66 0.67

    512 100 0.68 0.68 0.67

    This dataset is also part of the NusaCrowd project which aims to collect Natural Language Processing (NLP) datasets for Indonesian and its local languages.

The paucity of datasets is recognized as the main reason for the slow advancements in NLP research for underrepresented languages. Significant attempts were made in 2020 to address this drawback for Indonesian. The Indonesian Natural Language Understanding (IndoNLU) benchmark was introduced alongside IndoBERT pre-trained language model. The second benchmark, Indonesian Language Evaluation Montage (IndoLEM), was presented in the same year. These benchmarks support several tasks, including Named Entity Recognition (NER). However, all NER datasets are in the public domain and do not contain domain-specific datasets. To alleviate this drawback, we introduce IndQNER, a manually annotated NER benchmark dataset in the religious domain that adheres to a meticulously designed annotation guideline. Since Indonesia has the world's largest Muslim population, we build the dataset from the Indonesian translation of the Quran. The dataset includes 2475 named entities representing 18 different classes. To assess the annotation quality of IndQNER, we perform experiments with BiLSTM and CRF-based NER, as well as IndoBERT fine-tuning. The results reveal that the first model outperforms the second model achieving 0.98 F1 points. This outcome indicates that IndQNER may be an acceptable evaluation metric for Indonesian NER tasks in the aforementioned domain, widening the research's domain range.",isbn="978-3-031-35320-8"}

    Description

    TESS conducts general population experiments on behalf of investigators throughout the social sciences. General population experiments allow investigators to assign representative subject populations to experimental conditions of their choosing. Faculty and graduate students from the social sciences and related fields (such as law and public health) propose experiments. A comprehensive, on-line submission and peer review process screens proposals for the importance of their contribution to science and society.

    This list experiment tests whether views toward immigrants depend on whether the immigrant group shares the same religion as the respondent. Since traditional survey methods may be more prone to social desirability bias, an experimental design is necessary. In this study, respondents are divided between a control group and, in this case, two treatment groups. The control group is just asked three questions unrelated to immigration. The first treatment group is asked the original three questions, but with an additional question pertaining to Muslim immigrants. The second treatment group is asked the original three questions, but with an additional question pertaining to Christian immigrants. In its most basic incarnation, the comparison of the mean of the responses to the control list with the mean of the responses to each of the treatments offers an estimate of the proportion opposed to the additional list item.
