عنوان مقاله [English]
In Islamic and Christian theology faith is defined as an inner assent.
This assent, as a divine grace, grants to man's heart the hope of being
blessed in this mundane world and eternal happiness in the Hereafter.
As a result, man loses his selfishness and submits his desires to God's
will and commands, moreover, when he reaches a higher place, God’s
will would be manifested in his all existential aspects. Muhammad
Ghazzālī and Martin Luther, as two influential Islamic and Christian
thinkers, look at faith as such. By referring to their theological works,
this essay reaches the conclusion that according to them faith is an
inner assent which is given to man’s heart as a divine gift and grace. In
this respect both thinkers have a common view.
