THE PRINCIPLES OF ALLEGORICAL EXEGESIS ACCORDING TO FALSAFA
https://doi.org/10.22311/2074-1529-2017-13-3-85-102
Abstract
In this article the author considers the fundamental doctrine of the Muslim philosophy (Falsafa) about the harmony of reason i. e. philosophy and faith i. e. religion. In this context Ibn Rushd (Averroes, 1126–1198) elaborated an ingenious theory concerning the allegorical interpretation of the Qur’an. The aforementioned doctrine has special importance for the contemporary Islamic Reformist and Modernist thought.
