Abstract
This article discusses the development of the concept of faith and good works in the early Christianity and Islam. This article is a library research which uses descriptive and content analysis methods. In early Christianity and Islam, there were several interpretations that led to controversies which were either directly or indirectly related to the issue of faith and good works. The study found that there were several different interpretations that had been regarded as erroneous or heretical. Such different interpretations were represented by Manichaeism, Donatism, and Pelagianism in early Christianity, and Kharijites, Murji’ites, Mu‘tazilites in early Islam.
