The Ethical Values of Approximation of Islamic Religions in the Present Age

Without considering the approximation of Islamic religions as the theoretical basis of the unity of the Islamic Ummah, it is meaningless to talk about Islamic unity. Approximation of religions is the best way to reduce religious and ideological differences. This important issue, along with the undeniable role of ethics in the institutionalization of the approximate lifestyle within the Islamic community, necessitates serious and meticulous attention to approximate ethics. The present paper seeks to explain the ethics of approximation based on priority. This problem has been investigated using a library-based method of data collection and a descriptive-analytical approach to data analysis. Regarding the recent problems and damages of the approximation of Islamic religions, the following ethical principles of approximation are emphasized: "refraining from subjecting each other to calumnies ", "cooperating in common principles and values and refraining from provoking disputes", "avoiding insults to the sacred things of each other"," freedom in the choice of religion "and" having a good intent and attention to the sacred goal of approximation ". Ignoring each of these principles will have significant quantitative and qualitative consequence for the Islamic community.
