Abstract

In order to explain the relation between religion and philosophy, the author has discussed the most important issues, common in these two, as well as the method, accepted in philosophy. Citing the verses and Hadiths and providing examples for philosophical issues and proofs in the religious texts, he has gone to prove the validity of philosophical thought from the point of view of Islam.While emphasizing on the fact that philosophy is among the religious teachings, the author believes that philosophical issues, from the lowest level to the highest level are contained in religious texts; and we should accept the invitation of the Holy Quran to intellection as much as our capacities allow.
