English summary: The link between the individual and the state or religious community on the other hand, does not occur without tension. The Christian understanding of God is a result of the opinion of understanding man as a person, who turns to good account not because they are forced, but of own conviction and free will. The resulting conscientious and religious freedom resulting thereof was, however, disputed by Christianity for a long time. A Muslim is responsible to constructively contribute towards the societal and political structures in their community. The Koran not only reprimands obedience towards God, but also urges believers to maintain societal order, as well as to constructively contribute towards political and societal structures. A Muslim has a responsibility to help shape the constructive social and political structures of its surroundings. The Koran exhorts not only to obedience to God, but puts the faithful close also to maintain the social order and help shape political and social structures constructively . German description: Das Verhaltnis zwischen dem Individuum auf der einen und der staatlichen und religiosen Gemeinschaft auf der anderen Seite ist nicht ohne Spannung. Aus dem christlichen Gottesverstandnis ergibt sich die Auffassung des Menschen als Person, die sich nicht unter Zwang, sondern aus eigener Uberzeugung und freiem Willen zum Guten wenden soll. Die daraus resultierende Gewissens- und Religionsfreiheit war aber im Christentum lange Zeit umstritten. Ein Muslim hat die Verantwortung zum konstruktiven Mitgestalten der gesellschaftlichen und politischen Strukturen seiner Umgebung. Der Koran ermahnt nicht nur zum Gehorsam gegenuber Gott, sondern legt den Glaubigen auch nahe, die gesellschaftliche Ordnung zu wahren sowie politische und gesellschaftliche Strukturen konstruktiv mitzugestalten.
