The UNESCO Chair has published a new book entitled “Religions Through the Lens of the Qur’anic Vision: An Analytical and Comparative Study”

The book explores the essence of religions and the diversity of religious laws. The author emphasizes that religion is one, namely Islam in its universal monotheistic sense, and that the differences among the laws brought by the prophets represent variations in perfection rather than contradictions. He further argues that Islam came to complement previous divine revelations rather than abrogate them.

The publication examines the origins of Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Christianity, highlighting that the Holy Qur’an recognizes the freedom of individuals to choose their beliefs and entrusts the final judgment among religions to God on the Day of Resurrection.

The author stated that this book is part of the series of academic publications undertaken by the UNESCO Chair to promote a culture of dialogue and religious pluralism, offering a religious model for peaceful coexistence and acceptance of others.
