Postmodernism is defined by an attitude of skepticism or distrust toward metanarratives, ideologies, the existence of objective reality and absolute truth. It apt to deconstruct all of those elements in the current intellectuals, arts and cultural processes. Postmodernism allows multiplicity of views, thus enhances the possibility to know and understand one another. Islam is a universal religion that approves some injunctions as absolute and eternal. It encourages to use reason to understand the revelation but like postmodernism does not accept reason as supreme authority. This paper is important because it attempts to show that how the universal religion Islam, the worldview, can communicate with the society that is nurtured by the skeptic and nihilistic thought. This study shows that Islam could be understood by some aspects of postmodernism that are not contrary to Islamic faith.]
