The Quran and Religious Pluralism

About this event

The series “The Quran and Religious Pluralism,” presented by Farhad Shefti, a researcher in Islamic studies, addresses one of the major issues in contemporary theology: how does the Quran approach the existence of multiple religions and diverse religious traditions?

The discussions explore fundamental questions about the possibility of different paths of connecting human beings with God and salvation, the relationship between diverse beliefs and truth, and the boundary between accepting religious diversity and relativism.

The first session, titled “Introduction, Framing the Issue and Approach,” focuses on explaining the central question, key concepts, and the framework of the discussion. The program is an opportunity for those interested in philosophy of religion, Quranic studies, theology, interfaith dialogue, and contemporary understandings of religion to engage with one of the significant challenges in modern religious thought.
