Abstract

This article aims to analyze the concept of interfaith harmony through the approach of religious pluralism proposed by contemporary Muslim thinkers. It explores ideas and efforts to foster harmony amidst the intolerance often found among diverse ethnic and religious groups. The arguments of pluralists merit examination and analysis, considering the approach of religious pluralism they adopt has evoked both support and controversy in society. Moreover, disputes over the meanings and concepts of this approach even among its proponents are noteworthy. This qualitative research is based on library research, utilizing both print and digital sources. Initially, the article outlines the pluralists' arguments for building harmony through religious pluralism, which are then subjected to critical analysis. It finds that the concept of religious pluralism embodies elements of truth relativism and the desacralization of religious values. Consequently, efforts to foster harmony proposed by pluralists often conflict with religious values, especially Islamic teachings, such as denying claims of salvation, endorsing same-sex marriage, interfaith marriage, and permitting apostasy, viewed as forms of religious freedom claimed to align with the commandments of Allah. Abstrak Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis konsep kerukunan antar umat dengan pendekatan pluralisme agama yang digagas oleh para pemikir Muslim kontemporer. Gagasan dan upaya membangun kerukunan berkait dengan perilaku intoleransi yang jamak terjadi di tengah keragaman suku dan agama. Argumen para pluralis layak dikaji dan dianalisis mengingat pendekatan pluralisme agama yang mereka gunakan menuai pro dan kontra di masyarakat. Bahkan, perebutan makna dan konsep tentang pendekatan ini terjadi di antara mereka sendiri. Penelitian dalam artikel ini bersifat kualitatif dengan berbasis pada data kepustakaan, baik cetak maupun digital. Mula-mula, peneliti memaparkan argumen para pluralis membangun kerukunan dengan pendekatan pluralisme agama untuk kemudian dianalisis secara kritis. Dalam tulisan ini ditemukan bahwa gagasan pluralisme agama mengandung relativisme kebenaran dan mendesakralisasi nilai-nilai agama. Oleh karenanya, upaya-upaya membangun kerukunan yang digagas para pluralis sering kali bertentangan nilai-nilai agama, utamanya dengan ajaran Islam, seperti penafian klaim keselamatan, pernikahan sesama jenis, pernikahan beda agama, hingga membolehkan murtad karena dianggap sebagai bentuk kebebasan beragama yang diklaim sejalan dengan perintah Allah.

Abstract

Modern materialistic perspectives, combined with Western philosophical critiques that reject the existence of God, have contributed to the rise of atheistic worldviews. In response to this condition, this study aims to identify forms of atheistic rejection in Western philosophy, analyze Quranic thematic narratives related to faith and divine existence, and integrate both findings to demonstrate how the Qur’an addresses and counters atheistic thought. Using a qualitative literature-based method that employs Quranic thematic analysis and comparative philosophical analysis with references to classical and contemporary interpretations, this research finds that atheistic views reflected in the Qur’an include denial of the afterlife, moral accountability, religion, prophets, and the existence of God. The Qur’an counters these views through narratives on the purpose of life, the reality of the hereafter, divine justice, revelation, and prophetic guidance. This study contributes by offering a structured analytical framework that bridges Quranic epistemology and Western atheistic critique, highlighting the intellectual relevance of the Qur’an in addressing contemporary atheism
