Abstract

In Derrida's thought, "deconstruction" is not a "method" but an "approach" that questions the whole of metaphysical ideas and the tradition of Western philosophy from Plato to Husserl. The scope of his view also includes religious concepts because of their metaphysical nature. This paper shows the role of the term "deconstruction" and its application and explanation in the field of theology. To this end, while pointing to alternative interpretations that link Derrida’s deconstruction with nihilism and critique of this claim and relying on the deconstructive evidence of his thinking, such as the concept of the gift, the paradox of faith, the promise of faith, and justice, it has been tried to speak of the similarity between deconstruction and the possibility of religious thought. With this statement, the metaphorical reading of some of his commentators becomes irrelevant, and the positive and negative aspects that exist in differentiation and impossibility as deconstructive devices can pave the way for the possibility and understanding of a kind of negative theology in Derrida's philosophical thought and questioning of the sacred in the contemporary era.
