RELIGION, REVELATION AND WESTERN VIEWS ABOUT QUR’ĀN
Journal Title: Educational Research International - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
This article discusses the concept of revelation and religion. It highlights the modern trend to study religions in social, cultural and historical perspective in order to comprehend Abrahamic faiths in an objective and unbiased manner. Though positive in many respects this approach is unable to cater for some very essential concepts of revealed religions, such as 'revelation and faith'. These concepts are seen in skeptical manner thus reinforcing the paradoxes between religious and secular Worldviews.
