Abstract

This study is related to the concept of Islamic Literature conceived by Prof Ismail al-Faruqi. In this concept al-Faruqi emphasizes some important questions that need to be understood by Muslims; firstly Muslims need to look at their history, that is, the history of literature and correspondence from the writers of the past. Then he stressed that today's writers if they want to produce quality works must imitate the authentic Qurānic art. Next, al-Faruqi mentioned that the field of literature today is weak because Islamic writers are influenced by the west. The fact is that the west has lost its spiritual value because of its acceptance to secularism. If Islamic writers were to follow the west then we would become weak like them. Al-Faruqi mentions several Islamic figures who were influenced by the west. He then responded to Granebaum's accusation of blaming the teachings of Islam on the backwardness of Muslims in the field of art and literature. For al-Faruqi, the basis in producing literary art in Islam is ‘Tawḥīd’.
