This paper aims to make a short survey on the discourse of religious pluralism nowadays. The emphasis is made on its inception and development, and the personalities who responsible to disseminate this ideology to the Western and Muslim people all over the world. The research employs the qualitative methodology in which the data collected are analyzed using the textual and content analysis approach.
