The Domination of the Islam Enemies over the People of Theology: Causes & Aspects in Light of Ibn Taymiyyah's Viewpoint: An Analytical Study 10.35781/1637-000-111-001

Abstract

This research shows the wrong reasons of the principles as well as the methods of inference taken by the Islamic theological teams in their reports of Islam rites and faiths, and their responses to the claims of the opposing teams of such a religion. These improper acts render the task of the Islam opposing teams easy and enable them to have intellectual dominance, using such false supplies. This is noticed and demonstrated in the light of the words of Ibn Taymiyyah- may Allah the Almighty have mercy on him- in his analytical study. The research includes a preamble and two chapters. The preamble has two sections: the first defines the term "dominance" and the concept of "Islam enemies". The second section presents the definition of the term "theological people" who belong to Islam religion as well as "theology" and its truth, for which it has been vilified by the predecessors. The first chapter of the research includes two sections: the first highlights the care of Shaykh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah in mentioning the methods of the people of theology and their wrong paths in the way Islam faiths are reported to non-Muslims and the claims against Islam religion, which have been a reason for the witnessed dominance of Islam enemies, are responded to. The second section clarifies Ibn Taymiyyah's intentions in this regard, highlighting and analyzing the underlying reasons behind such matters. The second chapter is of two sections: the first one explains the reasons that have to do with the Islamic principles as well as the sources such as relying on "evidence of accidents" and the lack of knowledge of the Qur'anic verses and Sunnah traditions, in terms of narration and knowledge, supporting that with some images. The second section clarifies the reasons that have to do with the method of inference such as the excessive interpretation of the texts of attributes and inference of innovated mental principles/evidence, revealing some images aboout them. The research is ended with a conclusion which includes the most important findings and recommendations.
