An infidel (literally, "one without faith") is one who doubts or rejects central tenets of a religion, especially those regarding its deities. More generally, an infidel is one who doubts or rejects a particular doctrine, system, or principle.

  • In Roman Catholic Christianity, "infidel" referred to those who do not believe in the divinity of Jesus. It is an archaism now supplanted by "non-Christian".
  • In Islam, the Arabic word kafir (كافر) refers to non-Muslims, frequently with a derogatory sense *, and is usually translated into English as "infidel" or "unbeliever". The Turkish equivalent of "kafir" is giaour.
  • In Judaism, heathens (pagan gentiles) are called acum (עכו"ם, an acronym of Ovdei Cohavim u-Mazzaloth עובדי כוכבים ומזלות literally "Star-and-Constellation Worshippers"). Heretical Jews may be called minim ("sectarians"). Unlike in Islamic use, the Hebrew "kofer" (כופר, cognate of the Arabic "kefir") is usually applied to apostate Jews. The other term, mainly for atheists is "epikoros" (אפיקורוס, literally, an "Epicurean").
