There are, concerning how is rightfulness and salvation from religions’ point of view, three main approaches including exclusivism, inclusivism and pluralism that each one has its own merits and defects. The gradual approach is introduced as a new alternative theory which tries to be immense from their defects and to have their merits. In this approach, recognizing absolute divine reality and the totality of religions’ teachings and openness of salvation is gradually explained, so that, all heavenly and maybe some non-divine religions have gradually and hierarchically participated of the absolute reality and the way of salvation, with this difference that every latter divine religion, like Islam, has the perfections of former religions and some new teachings that can’t be found in previous religions. Meanwhile all divine religions have gradual unity and commonality in particular regarding fundamental beliefs. So according to gradual participation of reality by believers of religions, the way of salvation, also, is opened. In this case, in this paper, by referring to the holy Quran, we can consider some factors, like gradual unity of revelation, direct way, the gradual reality of Islam, plurality of religious beliefs, the importance of divine merciful attributes that support our theory concerning gradual approach to religious pluralism. In this paper, having noticing significance of finding efficacy approach regarding logical response to the question of rightfulness and salvation in the eye of religions, is tried to test this theory.
