\nMUSLIM THEOLOGY OF RELIGIONS<\/p>\n
Islam and religions. The topic is not new. At the time of early Islam, it referred to the relations and interactions between Muslims and non-Muslims. In the first centuries of Islam, it was discussed in the context of treaties on dogmas and practices of different \u201csects\u201d and religions. It classifies the numerous Refutations (rud\u016bd) towards Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians or heterodox Muslim factions and deals with the legal question (fiqh) of the rights and duties of the non-Muslims on the one hand and the Muslims\u2019 on the other hand .<\/p>\n
Since the eighties, the question has been subject to a renewed interest, especially because of the influence of the Christian theology. The aim is to question the view of the Koran, the Sunna or some Muslim thinkers towards non-Muslims and their religions. In this perspective, some have tried to assess whether the paradigms of exclusivism, inclusivism and pluralism brought forward within a Christian theology of religions could be used to explain the Islam\u2019s views about non-Muslim religions . Thus, thinkers or philosophers question the Koran and already highlight the existence of \u201cpluralist\u201d verses . A Muslim theology of non-Muslims and religions is emerging. Many questions, otherwise classical, are linked to this theology. What role does God give to or expect from non-Muslims? How does he judge the actions of a non-Muslim in order to serve him or to serve humanity and what value should be given to the non-Muslim religion in passing on spiritual virtues? What is the theological and legal status of the books other religions ? Can salvation be considered for a non-Muslim ?
