Second Discourse Dilemma
King Abdullah II’s vision is based on respect for religion as a source of values, while rejecting its use to monopolize power or impose guardianship, declare others apostates, or justify violence. It distinguishes between Salafi movements, peaceful Islamist currents, and extremist thought. This vision was reflected in the 2004 Amman Message, which confronted extremism and takfir, and in his sixth discussion paper, issued on 16 October 2016, which affirmed that Jordan’s civil state is not secular but is founded on the rule of law, citizenship, and pluralism. The King accepts Islamists’ participation in politics so long as they respect the Constitution and the rights of others, rejecting any group’s claim to monopolize the interpretation of Islam or impose it on society.
