Elements of Islamic Metaphysics (Bidayat Al-Hikmah), Paperback Book

Elements of Islamic Metaphysics (Bidayat Al-Hikmah) Paperback

Paperback

Description

This book signals a new approach to the teaching of Islamic philosophy.

It provides a useful overview of 20th century philosophy in Iran, and traces the development of philosophical thought in the context of a religious tradition whose intellectual character was determined to a large extent by the contents of the Qur'anic revelation and the prophetic teachings.

At the same time, it attempts to demonstrate how philosophical thought is by nature independent of religious doctrine and differs from theology, which depends on revelation and tradition.

A salient feature of the Islamic intellectual tradition has been the conviction that there can be no conflict between reason and revelation.
