四、依法管理宗教事务
新疆依照法律法规,按照“保护合法、制止非法、遏制极端、抵御渗透、打击犯罪”的原则,对宗教事务进行管理,保护宗教信仰自由,保障正常宗教活动有序进行。
新疆先后颁布和修订《新疆维吾尔自治区宗教活动场所管理暂行规则》《新疆维吾尔自治区宗教活动管理暂行规定》《新疆维吾尔自治区宗教教职人员管理暂行规定》《新疆维吾尔自治区宗教事务条例》等法规规章,明确了宗教团体、宗教活动场所、宗教教职人员的权利和义务。新疆还将不断完善宗教事务管理法规规章,进一步提高宗教工作法治化水平。
IV. Managing Religious Affairs in Accordance with the Law
In accordance with laws and regulations and the principle of "protecting the legal, stopping the illegal, containing the extreme, resisting infiltration, and combating crimes," Xinjiang manages religious affairs, protects people's freedom of religious belief, and ensures that normal religious activities proceed in an orderly way.
Xinjiang has promulgated and amended a series of regulations, including the Provisional Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on the Administration of Sites for Religious Activities, the Provisional Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on the Administration of Religious Activities, the Provisional Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on the Administration of Religious Personnel and the Regulations of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Religious Affairs, which define the rights and obligations of religious organizations, venues for religious activities and religious personnel. Xinjiang will further improve its rules and regulations on the administration of religious affairs and the rule of law in its work in this regard.
宗教活动场所的管理。在新疆,宗教活动场所依法向政府履行登记手续,一经登记,便获得合法地位。政府颁发《土地使用证》《房屋产权证》《宗教活动场所登记证》。宗教活动场所享有成立民主管理组织、管理内部事务、组织开展宗教活动、接受捐赠、管理使用财产、依法兴办社会公益事业等权利。宗教活动场所的合法权益受法律保护,任何组织和个人不得侵犯和干预。进入宗教活动场所的组织和个人,必须遵守宗教活动场所管理制度,尊重宗教教职人员和信教公民。通过宗教活动场所的依法管理和信教公民的自我管理,保证宗教活动场所活动安全有序、管理规范、环境整洁。
宗教活动的管理。在新疆,正常宗教活动受法律保护,信教公民的集体宗教活动必须在依法登记的宗教活动场所内进行。宗教活动应当遵守社会秩序、工作秩序、生活秩序和公共场所的相关规定。宗教团体负责协调解决宗教内部事务,政府不予干涉。
Administrate venues for religious activities. Venues for religious activities in Xinjiang have to go through government registration formalities in accordance with the law before they get legal status. The government issues the land-use certificate, housing-ownership certificate and registration certificate for each such venue. The venues enjoy the right to establish democratic management organizations, manage their internal affairs, organize and conduct religious activities, receive donations, manage and use property, and initiate public welfare programs. The legitimate rights and interests of the venues are protected by law, and no infringement or intervention by any organization or individual is allowed. Anyone that enters the venues must follow the administration regulations and respect the religious personnel and believers. Through the administration of the venues in accordance with the law and the self-management of religious believers, activities in the venues are held in a safe and orderly way, and the venues are properly managed and enjoy a clean environment.
Administrate religious activities. Normal religious activities in Xinjiang are protected by law. It is required that group activities of religious believers be carried out in lawfully registered venues. Religious activities must comply with the regular order of society, work and life, as well as the regulations governing public places. Religious organizations are responsible for coordinating internal religious affairs, and the government should not interfere.
