Ma`rifat Adyan

The transcendent unity of religions is one of the components of the discourse of traditionalism, which represents the result of traditionalists' approach towards religions. Relying on such things like diversity of revelations, principle of orthodoxy, difference between the domains of inward dimension and outward one, and internal unity of religions, traditionalists try to brush aside the differences among religions and concentrates on the common ground between them. Consequently, the difference between religions is, to them, superficial and untrue, and all religions unite transcendentally level. Elaborating on the content of the aforementioned principles adopted by traditionalists, the present paper analyzes and criticizes this concept according to the discourse of traditionalism, evaluates traditionalists' views, and assesses their words in the light of Islam and Quranic teachings.
