Unique Principles Of The Islamic Worldview

The two unique principles of the Islamic worldview is “bilaterality” which means to consider all the directions that need to be done looked at and not just one side.

For example; idealism and realism are considered as opposites. However, the Islamic worldview is both idealistic and realist. In other words, it has an endless potential of elevating man and his society the highest levels of knowledge and excellence in all fields and it has the wisdom to accept things as they are by observing the natural and social reality of human beings and life.

Islam is both rational and reasonable, however it doesn’t allow the idolization of human reason. It does not allow the mind to go beyond its natural limits, as Necip Fazıl describes as “flying a kite unaware of the sky” or “attempting to harpoon the sky.”

Islam wages war against ignorance, it is scientific. But it prevents science from taking people to arrogance and exuberance. It strives for the realization of contemplation and “spirituality”, which is the purpose of having knowledge.

It is necessary to digest the theoretical principles thoroughly in order to understand the concrete principles correctly.

For example; Islam has the principle of rule and order which means principles and sanctions that regulate social life. Some circles intentionally present it as something frightening to those who don’t know.

However, if the voluntarism of Islam is understood correctly, it will be seen that Islam demands the application of these rules of order “voluntarily and willingly”, by training the will of individuals, maturing their hearts with faith and their souls with purification.

As another example; it is necessary to thoroughly digest the abstract humanism principle in order to understand the tangible jihad principle.

Especially the hope-inspiring and benevolent nature of Islam is a never-ending source of morale and motivation for educators and religious leaders.

Deeds are evaluated according to intentions, similarly the practices are valued according to mentality of those who practice them.
