“… Before partaking in the course I was wary of studying philosophy since I have heard negative feedback on it…However, Alhamdulillah through the guidance of amazing and inspirational teachers I was able to appreciate works of philosophy and can now clearly see the foundation of ideas and how philosophical arguments regarding epistemology and even the metaphysics arose.”

The Western Intellectual Tradition

Are you taking a course on philosophy? Are you confused about your faith? Do you want to learn the Islamic perspective on Western philosophical ideas?

This part of the program will introduce the students to the essential ideas, thinkers terminologies, texts, methodologies and debates within the Western intellectual tradition – philosophy, theology, history, polity. A comparative approach between Western and Islamic intellectual traditions will be elaborated where possible.

This 14-week course will introduce the students to the essential concepts, major thinkers terminologies, texts, methodologies and debates within the Western and Islamic intellectual tradition with reference to questions about God’s nature and His attributes.

The course will explore some of the major debates revolving around the essential attributes of God such as omnipotence, omniscience, divine morality and divine will. The course will also explore the intricate discussions on the problem of evil and as well as sociological and psychological perspectives on the concept and utility of religion.

The aforementioned themes will be approached in a comparative framework crossing between Western and Islamic intellectual traditions.
