Abstract: The 21st century has been marked by rapid globalization, technological advancements, and unprecedented cultural exchanges. These developments have brought diverse communities closer together, fostering opportunities for mutual understanding but also creating challenges in terms of coexistence and integration. Among the most significant issues in this context is the relationship between Islam, as a comprehensive religious system, and Western society, which is predominantly shaped by secularism, liberalism, and individualism.
