Chinese Anglicans and missionaries wrestled with the relationship between Christian rituals and culture.

Another question was how far traditional Chinese wedding customs could be integrated into Christian marriage. Students at Anglican schools wondered whether God would ‘m

The article considers the funeral and memorial customs and rites of the Chuvashs living in the Southern Urals, mainly the Ttans-Ik and Trans-Belaya basins of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The choice of the study range is due to the fact that the funeral and memorial customs and rites of the Chuvash of this region have not been studied sufficiently in historical and ethnological terms, and the available studies are generalized or fragmentary in nature. The purpose of the study is to show the phenomenon of the so-called posthumous wedding and its local variants, which have been preserved and ex

It examines the historical spread of Islam in the region, emphasizing the challenges faced during the Arab conquest of Maverannahr and the methods used to propagate the religion, such as the integration of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) into local customs.
