The author gives a concise and penetrating analysis of Western conceptions of knowledge, science, truth, and reality, and then compares and contrasts it with the conception of Islam. In his attempt to provide a reasonable solution, the author deals with the sources and methods of knowledge by giving a brief account of human nature and human faculties, the meaning of Truth-Reality as denoted by the term haqq-haqiqah and its relation to Justice and Wisdom, the concept of the reality of existence (wujud), the laws of nature as God's customary way of acting, the signs of God in nature to approached within the framework of muhkamat-mutashabihat and tafsir-ta' wil, the issue of change and permanence, etc. In brief, the ideas contained in this monograph consitute the fundamental basis of the Islamic worldview, and it is within this framework that the Islamic philosophy of science should be formulated. Essential reading for the educated public and students and scholars at tertiary institutions.
