Abstract

The essence of faith is a controversial issue, especially among Muslim and, more prevalently, among Christian thinkers. In this connection, the relation between faith and DOUBT is one of the main cases of the differences of this controversy. In an attempt to pin down the sources of these differences, this paper trace their roots to matters such as differences in the contents of religious beliefs, the theoretical presuppositions of the religious thinkers, the different socio-political experiences of the religious societies and, finally, the differences in the intellectual-philosophical currents affecting these two religious fields. Admitting the important role of the last component, one can expect that the rapid growth of communications as the main channel of exchange of ideas may create opportunities for the Islamic thought to come into contact with rival and opposing views on account of which the ISLAMIC FAITH may face the same challenges that Christianity had to confront in recent centuries. This article, by using a concept analytical method toward explaining the relationship between faith and DOUBT, adopts an epistemological approach called CONSTRUCTIVIST REALISM as a basis for ISLAMIC FAITH and maintains that contrary to the belief by certain circles of Christianity, DOUBT cannot be regarded as an integral element of faith. Although the existence of DOUBT is undeniable, it is not a challenger vis-a-vis faith. This premise seems to predispose Islamic education to, on the one hand, promote tolerance regarding DOUBT and to emphasize effort and motivation for attaining certainty on the other.
