title: Interfaith Dialogue from the Perspective of Islamic Law
creator: Wahyudi, Yudian
subject: Perbandingan Agama
description: Interfaith dialogue is and always has been an integral part  of Islam, but it has taken on increased importance since the  September 11 tragedy. Most scholarship on the subject, however,  looks at it from a historical rather than a theoretical point of  view, or if it treats theory at all, it concentrates on enumerating  shared values. Seldom, if ever, are the writings of Muslim scholars  or intellectuals explored for insight into how Islam justifies interreligious  discourse. In order to fill this lacuna, I propose to look  at the legal basis for interfaith dialogue in Islam, and to do so I  apply Averroism as a method, relying on the epistemological  principles outlined in Ibn Rushd' s "methodological trilogy": his  Manah.ij al-AdiUah jT 'A1a'id Ahl al-Millah, Fasl al-Maqal fi ma  bayn al-l-Hikmah wa al-Shari'ah min al-ittisal and Bidayat al-Mujtahid  fi Nihayat al-Muqtasid. This method will be applied to the ideas  of three representative Muslim scholars of the modern day: the  Egyptian Hasan Hanafi, the Moroccan Muhammad 'Abid alJabiri  and the Indonesian Nurcholish Madjid. To do so I will  first of all transfer the Manahij's comparative theological (kalam)  discussion to my current focus. Secondly, I will take fasl al-Maqal' s  legal (fiqh) approach to solving the problem of philosophy and religion, and apply it to the current topic by asking: What is the  legal status of undertaking interfaith dialogue? Is it obligatory  (wajib), recommended (mandUb), indifferent (mubCih)), detested  (makruh) or prohibited (h)aram)? And what is the position of  interfaith dialogue in the Maqasid al-Shari'a (the aims of Islamic  law)? Although I will compare Madjid's, al-Jabiri's and Hanafi's  points of view from a legal perspective, lwill not give my personal  judgements on whose opinions are right or wrong, stronger or  weaker, as Ibn Rushd did in his Bidayat al-Mujtahid.
