Abstract

This article analyzes the influence of contemporary materialistic and 
secular worldviews on human faith and spiritual consciousness. The study examines 
modern forms of materialism, including scientism, moral relativism, secularism, and 
consumer culture, as well as their theological and ethical consequences. Furthermore, 
the historical formation of kalam theology, its defensive role in protecting Islamic creed, 
and its methodological foundations based on the harmony of reason and revelation 
are discussed. Special attention is given to the Maturidi school and its methodological 
relevance in addressing contemporary ideological and theological challenges. The 
article concludes that kalam theology remains an essential methodological system for 
strengthening theological stability and ideological immunity in modern Muslim societies.
