Abstract:

A critical approach to the modern type of knowledge is a thematic issue of contemporary Islamic discourse. Reducing the overall reality to a concept (rationalism), measure and quantity (empiricism) and to a set of objects (positivism), led to the reduction of reality, neglecting its metaphysical foundation and spiritual values. This approach has led in modern history to a "technical picture of the world" or "technicalization of the world" that produces a large number of crises in Western history: ecological crisis, crisis of instrumental rationality, moral crisis. Everyone agrees that the problem of modern knowledge lies in the neglect of the essence and that it relies on change for the sake of change, losing its spiritual and moral content.
