معرفة الله عند أبي حيان التوحيدي في ضوء عقيدة أهل السنة و الجماعة

Abstract EN

The current study sought to identify the views of Abu-Hayyan Tawhideh concerning knowing Allah (GBTH) and criticizing such beliefs in the light of Ahl As-Sunnah and Al-Jama'ah’s doctrine.

The study adopted the inductive analytical method and attained the following results in relation to Abu-Hayyan Tawhideh’s views of knowing Allah (GBTH) as follows: 1) Knowing Allah (GBTH) from the views of Abu-Hayyan Tawhideh is a mental necessity and sensory reasoning.

2) Abu-Hayyan Tawhideh differentiated between the mental necessity and the sensory reasoning, as he delineated the highness of the mind and the weakness of senses.

3) Knowing Allah (GBTH) from the viewpoint of Abu-Hayyan Tawhideh is something abstract and concrete which could be used for identifying the real world to link the mind to Allah (GBTH) regardless of knowing the Islamic Sharia and Rules.
