Postmodernism is defined by an attitude of skepticism or distrust toward metanarratives, ideologies, the existence of objective reality and absolute truth. It apt
to deconstruct all of those elements in the current intellectuals, arts and cultural
processes. Postmodernism allows multiplicity of views, thus enhances the
possibility to know and understand one another. Islam is a universal religion that
approves some injunctions as absolute and eternal. It encourages to use reason to
understand the revelation but like postmodernism does not accept reason as
supreme authority. This paper is important because it attempts to show that how
the universal religion Islam, the worldview, can communicate with the society that
is nurtured by the skeptic and nihilistic thought. This study shows that Islam could
be understood by some aspects of postmodernism that are not contrary to Islamic
faith.]
