One of the fundamental issues that plays a key role in the realm of international interactions is the principle of coexistence and living based on tolerance. This principle influences the formation of intellectual systems and human relationships. Given the importance of peaceful coexistence and its pivotal role in human interactions, the question arises: Can peaceful living, based on Islamic thought and worldview, be accepted as a rule and strategy in non-Islamic societies with different intellectual foundations and socio-cultural patterns?
This article, through an analytical study and qualitative method, examines the hypothesis—drawing upon religious principles—that peaceful coexistence holds a foundational place in Islamic thought. Its extension into human and international relations, particularly with non-Muslim communities, with a view toward fostering international cooperation and harmony and laying the groundwork for global unity and order, contributes to the advancement of goals and the attainment of both national and Islamic interests.
