Abstract

This paper explores the key contributions of Huston Smith and Dr. Fazlur Rahman Ansari to the study of Abrahamic religions in the 20th century. Huston Smith's work, particularly "The World's Religions," has been instrumental in promoting interfaith dialogue and understanding by presenting a respectful and comprehensive view of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. Dr. Fazlur Rahman Ansari, a prominent Islamic scholar, emphasized the compatibility of Islam with modernity and advocated for a rational and dynamic interpretation of Islamic teachings. His efforts have significantly influenced modern Islamic thought. This study highlights how both scholars have enriched the discourse on Abrahamic religions, fostering mutual respect and coexistence.

Keywords: Abrahamic Religions, Comparative Study, Interfaith Dialogue, Religious Studies, Impact and Legacy.
