ABSOLUTISM VS. PLURALISM IN ISLAM TODAY

Abstract The internal struggle between the absolutists and the pluralists for “the soul of Islam” continues. The absolutists' slogan, “Islam is the solution” is meant to convey to the world that Islam is codified, static, and has left nothing unaddressed. Conversely, modernists see the Islamic legal system and practices as the result of human reasoning and effort. They believe pluralism can be scripted within Islamic historical and intellectual frameworks. Making a case for diversity, democracy, and human rights in religious terms today should not be considered a setback for modernity but a successful accommodation with it.
