| Summary: | Efforts in forming harmonious existence among religious believers have
produced two important responses and approaches as reaction to religious
diversity. The first type views religious diversity as a need for implementing
active tolerance attitude among religious believers although this does not
proceed to relativism and the second type of view acknowledges the unity of
religious truths. Essentially, Islam has many models and systems in dealing
with religious diversity. In evidence, the essence of Islamic teachings is the
obligation of Muslims to act in justice and peaceful to all human beings
regardless of their religious beliefs. This has also been described in Al-Faruqi’s
discourse on meta-religion. However, the Islamic teachings that emphasize on
respect to other religious believers should not exceed the basic tenets of
Islamic creed and faith. This study found that the concept of tawhid in Islam
can be a strong argument in cultivating tolerance and harmony among people
of different religions. |
