Islamic Philosophy

Philosophy is often regarded as the mother of sciences. It delves into the study of reality from a perspective distinct from that of various sciences. As an academic discipline, philosophy tackles mankind's fundamental inquiries regarding existence (Wujūd), the world, and truth. Islamic philosophy encompasses the thoughts of scholars from diverse schools of thought within the Islamic tradition. Moreover, this discourse includes a comparative analysis with other philosophical traditions, enhancing our understanding of Islamic philosophy.
