Revelation Sciences and Epistemology in Philosophy, History, and Methodology
An epistemological study examining the foundational role of revealed sciences and their integration with philosophy, history, and modern methodology.
About this book
In this profound scholarly work, Prof. El Hassan Chahid explores the epistemological foundations of revealed sciences (Ulum al-Wahy) and their structural relationship with epistemology, philosophy, and history. The book addresses the historical separation between religious revelation and secular human sciences that characterized modern Western philosophy.
Prof. Chahid argues for a holistic model of "epistemological integration" (Al-Takamul al-Ma'rifi), positing revelation not merely as a source of ritual and theology, but as a foundational epistemological pillar. The study provides a critical framework to harmonize divine revelation with reason, historical methodology, and social sciences, presenting an Islamic alternative to materialist epistemology.
