Though Islam is a religion against compulsion in inviting others into its fold, but it
allows to a certain degree for Muslim scholars to engage in any form of peaceful, ethical
and intellectual debate/discourse with people of other faith. Ever since this message was
communicated through the Qur’an, there appeared in the Muslim world many
intellectuals who engaged people of other faith in discussing issues related to God and
spirituality. While the Muslim world still celebrates the contribution of past renowned
Muslim scholars in the area of comparative religion, this small-scale research is
designed to investigate the approaches, contributions and controversies that surround
Naik who is a contemporary Muslim scholar of comparative religion. Even though many
recognize his intellectual competency in discussing other religions, but there are people
around the globe who find his public lecture provocative, cynical and disparaging
towards other religions. Through this qualitative study the researchers intend to
conduct a critical appraisal on Naik’s religious propagation. Besides that, the
researchers will also analyze some of the criticisms hurled at him. The critical analysis
of the research will objectively discuss Naik’s method of preaching, personality, style of
public lecture, etc. The textual-analysis method will be employed to interpret the
pertinent data of this research that come in the form of Naik’s public lectures and
written documents. |
