Logic in Islamic philosophyEarly Islamic law placed importance on formulating standards of argument, which gave rise to a "novel approach to logic" (منطق manṭiq "speech, eloquence") in Kalam (Islamic scholasticism). However, with the rise of the Mu'tazili philosophers, who highly valued Aristotle's Organon, this approach was displaced by the older ideas from Hellenistic philosophy. The works of al-Farabi, Avicenna, al-Ghazali and other Muslim logicians who often criticized and corrected Aristotelian logic and introduced their own forms of logic, also played a central role in the subsequent development of European logic during the Renaissance.
Murjismevignette|Le calife abasside Al Ma'mun (786-833) est proche du courant murjite. Le murjisme (en المرجئة Murji'ah) est une des premières écoles de théologie musulmane, elle émerge au cours du . Ses adeptes, murjites ou murji'ites (en arabe : المرجئون), considèrent que l'on ne peut excommunier un musulman à partir de ses actes, puisque seule la foi permet de statuer sur le statut croyant ou mécréant d'une personne. Pour les murjites, la foi correspondait à un ensemble de croyances individuelles et était située sur un terrain différent de celui des actes.
HikmahHikmah (also Hikmat, حكمة, ) is an Arabic word that means wisdom, sagacity, philosophy, rationale or underlying reason. The Quran mentions "hikmah" in various places, where it is understood as knowledge and understanding of the Quran, fear of God, and a means of nourishing the spirit or intellect. Hikmah is sometimes associated with prophethood, faith, intelligence ('aql), comprehension (fahm), or the power of rational demonstration.
Bila KayfThe Arabic phrase Bila Kayf, also pronounced as Bila Kayfa, (بلا كيف) is roughly translated as "without asking how", "without knowing how or what", or "without modality" which means without considering how and without comparison. Literally, "without how" but figuratively as "in a manner that suits His majesty and transcendence". It was a way of resolving theological problems in Islam over apparent contradictions in āyāt (verses of the Quran) by accepting without questioning.
