Formation of the systematic mind in the Islamic thought: the case of Ibn Khaldun
No full textThe main objective of this paper is to explain meaning and the general characteristic of systematic mind in Islamic thought, with especial reference to Ibn Khaldun’s approach in his “al-Muqaddimah”. The author holds the view that lack of systematic thought was one of the major causes of scientific decline in Islamic civilization. According to modern information science, the progression from ‘data’ to ‘wisdom’ is the framework for systemization of knowledge which enables human intellect to differentiate the various levels of what we see and what we know in the natural world. This systematic investigation constitutes the foundations of scientific method which differentiates between science and other modes of human knowledge. The systematic mind is a mode of thought which inclined to conform with the scientific method; in addition to its substantial capabilities of extracting the general principles and specific conclusions from individual observations. Abstraction, generalization and systemization are the general characteristics of the systematic mind, which can be formed naturally or acquired by means of experience and learning. These characteristics have enabled the human intellect to be the main source of scientific growth throughout the human history. There are many good examples of systematic mind in Islamic thought, but Ibn Khaldun’s approach in his “Al-Muqadimmah” was substantial. This paper aims to explain how Ibn Khaldun was able to develop the systematic mind based on Qur`anic injunctions and guidelines. Along the way, the paper explains the major implications of systematic thinking on revival of the modern Islamic thought and development of Muslim communities
Ethical discourse in the Qur'an: an analytical study of the term Huda in Izutsu's conceptualization
No full textConceptualization of medication, life and death: Religio-scientific approach
No full textMedicine and medication are aspects of philosophy of life and death. Why we get sick, why we take medicine and why we die? Every nation answers these questions in the framework of its own worldview: from where we come, why we are here in this turbulence world, and where we are gone? This mode of questions has no cure in medicine: they are the ultimate questions of mankind throughout the history. The way you answer these questions provides guiding principles and clues to your health system. In the other words, the conceptualization of medication system is an integral part of way of interpreting the origin og life, its meaning and purpose. These are the basic problems of human intellect throughout the history. Mankind has been trying to find proper answers to these questions by various means. The scientific investigation, philosophical speculation, and religious teaching are the basic approaches to find solution to the problems. Many of traditional methods in medication were mainly based on tow sources: religious beliefs and mere practices. The modern biology describes the therapeutic methods and medication based on its own concept of life. But biological meaning of life does not reflect all the fact about human aspects: mental, spiritual, and physical. The concept of life is deeply controversial issue according to religion, philosophy and modern physics. For instance Einstein's theory of relativity of space-time incredibly asserts that the length of a time interval-the age one lives-depends on one's speed. Meaning that the faster we move the longer we appear to live to someone who is not moving with us. The faster elements take longer to die, the slower ones die early. Einstein's ideas have brought about a revolution in the physicist's thinking. The modern developments in genetic and DNA research obviously create more complicated situation about conceptualization of life and death, and accordingly about therapeutic methods. The direct implication of scientific developments is that it has discovered our need to multidimensional approach of science, region and philosophy, rather than a single therapeutic method. The central point of this work is to highlight the concept of life and death from the perspectives of both religion and science and its role in conceptualization medication
The Islamic perspective on outbreaks

Naming the disease,
Type of the virus, and

the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) is concerned with the designation and naming of virus taxa (i.e. species, genus, family, etc.
Genesis of scientific thinking in the Qur'an
No full textThis paper proposes the Qur`anic conception on objective method of inquiry in the natural phenomena. It aims to elaborate the genesis of scientific thinking based on
Qur`anic approach. It is well known fact that the Holy Qur`an have been an important source of inspiration to investigate in nature. While its basic objective was to establish faith and to create a united moral society, the Qur`an has discussed many issues related to physical world. It talks about astronomy, cosmology, creation of mankind, creation of the universe, and astrophysics. This Qur`anic approach on nature inspired and motivated many of earlier scholars from various nations, ethnicities, cultures, and from different religious backgrounds, to investigate in the natural phenomena. The two generative aspects that needed for innovative research, especially in the natural phenomena, are curiosity and scientific thinking. The dawn of scientific knowledge had begun with curiously and observation. Driven by these two factors, mankind has been trying to find unity and regularity in the diversity of the natural processes. His major objective for investigation in nature has been the same; that is to uncover rules that govern the natural phenomena and to appreciate the Power behind the rules. By curiously, man begins to
observe and from observation he formulates theories and builds great history and glorious civilization. The basic objective of this article is to explain genesis of scientific thinking in the Qur`an. The paper especially focuses on the general epistemological parameters in
the Qur`anic approach, such as the concept of (Taqdir) and concept of (Sunnatullah), which are necessary for systemic engagement for knowledge inquiry and to establish the
foundations of research method. The Qur`anic approach on research motivation, creative and critical thinking will be elaborated
Sunan al-huda fi al-Qur'an al-karim wa-atharuha fi-hayah al-insan (سنن الهُدى في القرآن الكريم وأثرها في حياة الإنسان)
No full textظلت حركة الظواهر الطبيعية منذ فجر التاريخ تثير فضول الإنسان ودهشته واستغرابه، لتدفعه إلى النظر والتأمل في الكون، بحثاً عن الوسائل التي يفسر بها تلك الظواهر ويدفع عنه مخاطرها، دون إهتداء إلى منهج واضح لتحقيق تلك الغاية في كثير من الأحيان. وقد تحولت غاية البحث منذ فجر القرن التاسع عشر إلى مجرد سعي لقهر الطبيعة وإشباع الفضول. أما القرآن فدأب على دعوة الناس إلى البحث العلمي والكشف عن أسرار الله في الوجود لغايات ثلاث: الأولي تحقيق الإيمان بالله تعالى وتعميقه في القلوب،وهذه هي الغاية العظمى التي بُعثت من أجلها المرسلون، والغاية الثانية هي الاستفادة من نعم الله المبثوثة في الكون بإدراك سننها الحاكمة،أما الغاية الثالثة فهي الإعتبار بوقائع التاريخ بالتدبر في أيام الله في الأمم ومعرفة عوامل نهوضها وأسباب انحطاطها
