The Quranic Concept of “Ummat-E-Wahida”
تلخیص
An attempt has been made in this article to show what is meant by
the Quranic concept of “Ummat-e-Wahida”? In fact, there is no
scholarly consensus with regard to the concept. Some scholars have
taken it as a reference to human unity as against those who have
seen it as an alternative term for Muslim community. Some others
have defined it as a religion. The author has presented views of
different exegetists regarding the term. The quranic terms of
“ummat-e-Wahida” and “ummat-e-Wasat” have been also taken into
account to see whether they refer to a single reality or different
distinct realities. For the author, all the phrases in the Quran
containing the term ummah refer to a single reality. Different
practical ways of unity among Muslims have been also debated in
this article. State and religious leadership may play crucial role in
creating unity.
