Kemerajaan dan kerajaan Allah
Konsep kemerajaan Allah dapat dijumpai di dalam semua agama ibrahimi, dan dalam beberapa kasus dapat pula dijumpai pemakaian istilah kerajaan Allah dan kerajaan Surga. Gagasan kemerajaan Allah bersumber dari Alkitab Ibrani yang memuat perkataan "kerajaan-Nya" meskipun tidak memuat istilah "Kerajaan Allah".[1][2]

Istilah "Kerajaan Allah" maupun "Kerajaan Surga" yang semakna dengannya di dalam Injil Matius merupakan salah satu unsur utama dari ajaran Yesus di dalam Perjanjian Baru. Injil Markus mengindikasikan bahwa injil adalah kabar baik tentang Kerajaan Allah. Istilah tersebut tidak dapat dipisahkan dari kemerajaan Kristus atas segala makhluk. Kerajaan "surga" muncul di dalam Injil Matius terutama lantaran keengganan orang Yahudi untuk melisankan "nama" (Allah). Yesus tidak mengajarkan Kerajaan Allah did not teach the kingdom of God per se so much as the return of that kingdom. The notion of God's kingdom (as it had been under Moses) returning became an agitation in "knaan," modern Israel, Palestine, and Lebanon, 60 years before Jesus was born, and continued to be a force for nearly a hundred years after his death.[3] Drawing on Old Testament teachings, the Christian characterization of the relationship between God and humanity inherently involves the notion of the "Kingship of God".[4][5]
The Quran does not include the term "kingdom of God", but includes the Throne Verse which talks about the throne of God encompassing the heavens and the Earth. The Quran also refers to Abraham seeing the "Kingdom of the heavens".[6] Writings of the Baháʼí Faith also use the term "kingdom of God".[7] The term "kingdom of God" does not occur in the Quran. The modern Arabic word for kingdom is mamlaka (المملكة), but in the Quran mul'kan (مُّلْكًا), refers to Heaven, e.g. in 4:54 "Or do they envy mankind for what Allah hath given them of his bounty? but We had already given the people of Abraham the Book and Wisdom, and conferred upon them a great kingdom" and 6:75 "Thus did We show Abraham the kingdom of the heavens and the earth."[6] The variant Maalik (Owner, etmologically similar to Malik (king)) occurs in 1:4 "[Allah is] The owner of the Day of Judgement".[8]
Bahá'í Faith
The term "kingdom of God" appears in the writings of the Baháʼí Faith, including the religious works of Bahá'u'lláh, the founder of the religion, and his son `Abdu'l-Bahá.[7][9][10][11] In the Baháʼí teachings, the kingdom of God is seen both as a state of individual being, and the state of the world. Bahá'u'lláh claimed that the scriptures of the world's religions foretell a coming messianic figure that will bring a golden age of humanity, the kingdom of God on earth. He claimed to be that figure, and that his teachings would bring about the kingdom of God; he also noted that the prophecies relating to the end times and the arrival of the kingdom of God were symbolic and referred to spiritual upheaval and renewal.[12] The Baháʼí teachings also state as people worship and serve humanity they become closer to God and develop spiritually, so that they can attain eternal life and enter the kingdom of God while alive.[13] -->
