    Can some one explain the below statements from Sir Ghamidi’s Book Maqamaat Article 17 علم اضطراری

    دوسرا یہ کہتا ہے کہ علم و اردات نفس ہیں اور نفس مدرکہ کے سوا ہم کسی موجود کے وجود کا یقین نہیں رکھتے۔ تیسرے کا دعویٰ ہے کہ اثر محسوس کے سوا کوئی چیز یقینی نہیں ہے اور چوتھے نے اعلان کر رکھا ہے کہ حس اور فکر، دونوں ناقابل اعتماد ہیں، اِس لیے دنیا میں یقین اور قطعیت نام کی کوئی چیز سرے سے پائی ہی نہیں جاتی۔

    He’s referring to the philosophical concepts of idealism and materialism. Idealism is a philosophy that the real substance of this universe is consciousness, and they generally consider matter to just be an illusion. The ideology of materialism, on the other hand, believes that the the real substance of this universe is material, and they generally deny the existence of any such thing as consciousness. The last one that he’s referring to is the philosophy of postmodernism according to which it’s not possible for us to reach any final conclusions so everyone should just believe whatever they want to within their own domains.
