  1. Compare the use and meaning of empty space in Islamic architecture with that in Daoist-inspired drawings.
  2. Compare and contrast passages in a translation of the Qur'an that seem to cast women in a submissive role to passages in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 14:34–35; Ephesians 5:21–27; 1 Timothy 2:11–14). Research various interpretations of each.
  3. Explore specific marriage practices and rituals in Islam and compare with those of Hinduism or Judaism. Recognize that great variety exists between countries or regions within the same religion.
  4. Compare and contrast the way paradise is used as a theme in Islamic art with the way the Pure Land is portrayed in that school of Buddhism. Gardens are prominent in both.
