Abstract

The science of Islamic belief"علم العقيدة"had been considered most valuable discipline among other disciplines of knowledge as it played an important, rather pivotal role in the practical life. This academic work was designed to investigate the contemporary forms of Polytheism and their impact upon practical life. Qualitative and descriptive research methodology was used for the collection and analysis of data. The research had particularly addressed the four major aspects of of the topic: Firstly: Meanings and historical development of Polytheism, Secondly: Effects of Polytheism upon practical life, Thirdly: Analysis of Polyth-eism in the light of Quran and Sunnah, and Finally Contemporary forms of Polytheism from World and Religious perspective. The review of literature disclosed that Polytheism had been considered worst doctrine among different systems of belief as Allah Almighty would never forgive those who possess this doctrine. Historically, it gradually developed in Islamic and Un-Islamic countr-ies, produced harmful effects on practical life, affected world as well as religious life of people. Unfortunately, it is still spreading in various forms in the world. It is therefore responsiblitiey of religious scholars to encounter it by spreading the teachings of Quran and Sunnah so that people can get rid of curse.
