DESCRIPTION:Does tolerance increase through migration? A Case study on Pak
 istani Muslim migrants in Germany\nSajida Fazal (CERES\, PhD student)\nThi
 s paper is going to examine to what extent intra-religious boundaries and 
 differences as perceived in Pakistan transform in the Diaspora. It will ex
 plore how far Sunni and Shia relations are altered and which perspectives 
 and constraints are discernible in the new environment. For this purpose t
 he affiliation to the denomination and organisational structure will be ex
 amined by asking whether religious rituals and rules are maintained\, aban
 doned\, or substituted by others from different sub-denominations by the m
 igrants. In this respect\, the transnational networking of migrants will b
 e considered in order to explore the impact of religious authorities in th
 e homeland and in the Diaspora. In the scope of this qualitative research 
 20 narrative interviews have been conducted in Germany in 2014 with Pakist
 ani Muslim migrants and analysed based on a grounded theory approach. This
  paper argues that the interactions of diverse Pakistani Muslim migrants c
 ontribute to foster tolerance among them in the Diaspora situation.\nThis 
 paper will be presented in panel Religious Identity and Practice in Migrat
