Abstract (EN)

Knowledge has always been important for humanity. However, the origin of knowledge is also important at least as obtained information. Scientific disciplines have become a serious contribution to shape the Islamic civilization. It is evident that the ''Kalam'' science has an effective role to determine the scientific basis and principles of faith and belief in Islam. Knowledge sources of Kalam, according to the majority of scientist, are heard, news and intelligence. But today Muslim philosophers have added to these sources of information the "intuition" as e new information source. On the other site, Shia and Sufi authority has also voiced the "Kalam" to these literature. This led to cause a conflict among Muslim researchers. "Kalam" was more effective than mind to give form on religious perception in Muslim's public. Because, the Sufism is more dominant than other religious scientific discipline to organize the spiritual life. There is a principle in " Kalam" and this is no opposition to basis teaching of Islam. Because of that living according to the "Kalam" is not required for every people. And Kalam theologians said; if there is no binding in this discipline for everyone, it is not necessary to accept it as a new knowledge source too.
