Epistemological Geometry of “Social Theology of Islam”

Fayyaz Rostami Yekta, Ali Allahbedashti

Abstract


In order to know a scientific discipline or to establish a scientific major, it is necessary to study and identify the epistemological geometry of that discipline or major. This includes categories such as definition, purpose, subject, duties and responsibilities, methods and issues. It seems necessary to establish the major of “social theology” in the science of “Islamic theology”, aiming at “presenting the social dimensions of doctrinal teachings”, “analyzing new social issues related to doctrinal principles” and “responding to the mass of social misconceptions about religious teachings”. The present paper explains and analyzes the epistemological geometry of Islamic social theology.
