| description | Sri Lanka is a small pluralistic state. This is a multi-racial social environment, members of all
communities lived in peace and harmony with social integration with one another. Each
community practised and its own religious cultural values. This situation has changed
aftermath of the government’s victory in the war (1983-2009) against the Liberation Tigers
Tamil Elam (LTTE). Now there is a series of tense between the Buddhist and Muslim
communities in Sri Lanka. The Buddhist Nationalist Groups (BNGs) have been questioned the
social and religious features of the Muslims, and their religious obligations were heavily and
unduly questioned via provocations from these respective groups. On this background, the
study attempts to explore the religious interaction between Muslims and Buddhists in Sri
Lanka. The questionnaire survey used as a key tool, and the semi-structured interview
conducted among the Buddhists and Muslims in Sri Lanka. The findings of the study show that
the relationship between the two communities is generally seen to be in a healthy state.
However, the few notable features have exacerbated the tension between the two communities. |
