Abstract

Martin Heidegger chooses Being as his subject matter for his philosophy and believes that it has been neglected throughout the history of thinking. So he calls attention to it. According to him, the basis of his thought is to regard Being and to question it.Therefore he begins his job by men’s special being, for it is he who asks of Being, and the question of Being is his essential characteristic. His method introduced as “hermeneutic phenomenology” differs completely from reasoning method of philosophers, intuitive method of mysticism, and also the transcendental phenomenology of Husserl. In this method, the relation of man to his existential structures, and, its special mode of being has been analyzed. In fact, he approaches being by analyzing its meaning. We believe that his method can be used in Islamic philosophy and mysticism.
