Grace in Catholic theology is the free favour of God as manifested in
the salvation of men. This teaching is related to important concepts
such as faith, church, salvation, knowledge acquisition, and sacraments.
On the other hand, the Principle of Lutf in Shī’a theology has a similar
function, i.e. it is the Divine guidance realized by sending prophets and
imams. The Omniscience God knows man's needs and by His wisdom
directs whole creation, including man's life, from the beginning to the
end. The Principle of Luṭf is particularly mentioned in arguing about
the prophethood, imamate and ijmaʿ (consensus between jurists). So the
final goal of Grace and Luṭf is similar: "guiding human beings" which
leads to salvation. Both try to explain the relation of men and God from
an epistemological point of view, therefore the comparative study of
these teachings could be useful in the inter-religious dialogue between
Islam and Christianity.
