Abstract
The article discusses the manifestations of liberal Islam that are currently observed in Germany. The questions to what extent Islam has adapted to the new environment and values, and what methods and practices are proposed by German Muslims in order to make Islamic traditional norms compatible with fundamental Western values are raised. As examples are taken the concept of “EuroIslam” by Bassam Tibi, as well as the activities of German Islamic activists Seyran Atesh, Rabeya Müller and Halima Krausen are taken as exampl.
