Abstract

This article deals with the ideas of the greatest neomodernist thinker of Indonesia – Nurcholish Madjid (1939–2005). Author analyzes his contextual approach to the Qur’an, his understanding of universal and relative in Islam, his sociological views, his understanding of the universal ethics, and his views on Sufi sm and Perennial school. Author shows that Madjid’s philosophy may be evaluated as synthesis of Islamic traditionalism and Islamic modernism, and its relevance for the modern Islamic thought is very big.
