  • Reaching To The Truth Via Revelation Or Via Intellect

    السلام وعلیکم سر میرا سوال یہ ہے کہ کیا مذہب یا خدا کی طرف رسائی بغیر وحی اور پیغمبر کے محض عقل کے ذریعے ممکن ہے جیسا کہ ابن طفیل نے اپنی کتاب حی بن یقظان میں ذکر کیا کہ ایک بندہ مذہب کی سچائی تک وحی اور رسول کے ذریعے پہنچا اور دوسرا محض عقل تک اور جب ملے تو دونوں کے نظریات و عقائد ایک جیسے تھے ۔۔۔ابن طفی ل کے نظریہ کے بارے میں وضاحت کیجئے

    We humans have been been given innate sense of one Creator and innate sense of basic morality. Therefore, every human being, even in the absence of a prophet, can reach to the conclusion of one creator and can distinguish between basic good and basic evil. This can be considered a commonality between a follower of a prophet and the one who reached this conclusion in the absence of a prophet. However, the details of the religion which are given through a Prophet like Being of God, Attributes of God and other directives of Sharia, they cannnot be achevied via mere intellect and these two people cannot reach the same conclusion in this regard.

    There are no specific comments on ابن طفیل availabe but following video will clarify Ghamidi Sahab’s principle position in this regard:
