  Tolerance and peaceful coexistence with adherents of other religions isone of the conspicuous features of Indian culture. Meditating on theinner core of the existence and appreciating the true nature of religionleads to religious tolerance, therefore Hindu mystics and sages andMuslim Sufis of India were the leading figures of this transcendentbehavior. Moreover, most of the Mongol kings of India tried toestablish religious tolerance, Akbar (1542-1605), emperor of India inthe Timurid, or Mughal, dynasty is the best example of this policy andconduct. In the modern age, Ram Mohan Roy (1772-1833) and hismovement, known as Brahmo Samaj, again insisted on and promotedthe idea of religious tolerance. In fact the concept of tolerance in theteachings of Abu al-Kalām Āzād (1888-1958) is the continuation of thesame tradition which reflected in the mind of a prominent Muslimscholar. Manuscript profile

  The Holy Qur'an and Islamic traditions have mentioned Dhul-Qarnayn as a historical figure. Commentators have considered finding the historical example of Dhul-Qarnayn to be useful and a proof of the authenticity of the verses and hadiths. Two adaptations have received attention more than other theories: Adaptation to Alexander and Cyrus. The main reason is to pay attention to historical data about the lives of these two characters. The issue of the present research is whether there is evidence for these adaptations in Islamic traditions focusing on Shiite traditions. In the beginning, the historical period of life, name and ancestry, history, extent of power and travels of Dhul-Qarnayn are reported. Then, the opinions of the commentators have been examined according to the historical data and then the traditions about these comparisons. Findings: None of the two comparative theories are compatible with the character introduced by Dhul-Qarnayn. His existence and attributes are among the hidden news in history, which were mentioned by revelation, and there is no need to match them to any of the past kings.     Manuscript profile
