Abstract

Tolerance as a moral and behavioral virtue position is in Islamic Thoughts. The Holy Qur’ān pays special attention to tolerance in dealing with others, such as religious and racial minorities, and the topic is mentioned as one of the missions of the holy prophets. The present study was a review of original Islamic literature, especially the Holy Qur’ān and Sunnah, to explain the scope and limitations of tolerance in Islam. In explicit verses of the Qur’ān and many narrations from the Imams, the peaceful life of Muslims with followers of other religions is emphasized. However, some conditions are mentioned for it.
