The study of Islamic units in the university is the last chance of students to have a classic and academic experience of spiritual and religious issues in their academic life. Therefore, elaborating these units, their documents, qualities and teaching methods, are necessary from various aspects. The aim of this article is to show that compiling and collecting strategic documents for these units is a serious necessity. Statistical population included all students of faculties of Medicine, Dentistry and, Pharmacology at the Uremia University of Medical Sciences in the basic level (N= 250). Of these, 235 sheets of questionnaires were collected and analyzed. The data were collected using a questionnaire which had been made by the author. Cronbach Alpha coefficient was considered as 0.795. The analysis revealed that the Islamic studies units are very important if they are organized based on their beliefs and scientific needs and also, they are presented by academic stuff exhibiting scientific and methodic merits. Moreover, the findings show that collecting an extensive strategic document by which the approach of organizing these texts and documents of workshops of academic stuff skills has got the highest priority. Results show that the place of academic stuff of Islamic teachings at the universities needs more considerations with respect to their professional merits, i.e., scientific, educational, research abilities and teaching skills. In this regard, Islamic teaching's texts, curriculums in the various titles, require more harmony in their vertical and horizontal relationships

Alexander Bird has recently argued that social scientific knowledge is not reduced to individual scientific knowledge, nor supervenes on any mental state. Jenifer Lackey has raised two objections against Bird’s account of social knowledge. According to the first, Bird’s proposal contradicts with the conjunction of two accepted principles in epistemology named Knowledge/Action and Group/Member Action Principles. According to the second objection, Bird’s account does not accommodate defeating social scientific knowledge. The present article intends to answer Lackey’s objections. Conceptual analysis together with respecting intuitions about scientific knowledge. A principle replaced with the accepted principles will be introduced which respects the socially extended notion of scientific knowledge. I call it Group/Member Knowledge/Action Principle. Secondly, I will indicate that the socially extended scientific knowledge, although rarely, is defeated. The author of the survey concludes Bird’s account of social scientific knowledge is consistent with the principles accepted in epistemology horizontal relationships.

Due to the nature of the Islamic Revolution in Iran (1988), it has been seriously rooted in the human sciences, social and cultural conditions of Iranian-Islamic culture. What is western relationship with us? Humanities and based on its roots deep understanding and familiarity with scholars and experts who have studied various aspects of the study of the sciences is essential. The purpose of this article is to introduce the ideas of Michel Foucault as one of the most prominent thinkers of Western human sciences. To achieve this objective the resources available to library research and note taking techniques to collect data and then the data were analyzed. The results of the present survey indicated that Foucault observes the modern era in the formation of the human sciences. The role of power is a fundamental role in the formation of human sciences. He believes the man as subject and object of the conditions for the formation of the humanities in the West. Foucault highlights the role of power in the formation the humanities. According to him the problem is that humanities have not found its proper place among other sciences, social sciences, and various problems are originated from this issue. He does not predict a positive conclusion for the humanities and they will be replaced with sciences, such as psychoanalysis, linguistics and anthropology. The author of the article concludes Foucault with detailed analysis and critical view of the human sciences gives to the present researchers an important insight about human sciences in analyzing the science and improving the community

The Epistemological analysis of concepts is important for philosophy of sciences. The present study intends to explicate this practice in Islamic Philosophy. NeoSadraean philosophy introduced various types of concepts and analyzed them; but some analyses are logical or ontological. What do we mean by epistemological analysis? The present survey is an effort to give a proper answer to this question. For this purpose we study a case in Islamic Philosophy, this case study is about non-Substantial concepts. I introduce the Epistemological analysis of concepts by explaining the concept's references. This Pattern can be used in other concepts such as ethical concepts or physical concepts and other things.

The target of this essay, is studying the challenges of contemporaneous human, clarify the social aspect of human and the necessity of reviewing the Islamic thought – as a perfect system of life- in doctrine of Islam and Sadr’s view.

Descriptive and analytic.

The results of the research indicate in Sadr’s belief, looking for the best system for life and felicity of mankind is the most important question of contemporaneous human, which there is no answer for this question in modern science؛ and western Scholl, due to of restriction in their goal, couldn’t make a firm base to solve the challenge of contemporaneous human. On the contrary the unique way which be appropriate for human, is referring to religion. Because just religion can unite communities according a practical criterion and social order and guide and supply human’s need in a coherent system.

The author of the article concludes as Islam sets ‘Allah’ as its absolute ideal, can lead people continually and empowers them; and can be a strong base for social order and structure of society and civilization. Therefore paying attention to reconstruction the Islamic thought and organizing Islamic order, under the thought of monotheism, is the first step of forming a monotheistic community, religion science and Islamic civilization.

The general division of knowledge to theoretical and practical knowledge is based on the difference between the Object and belonging of perceptions which are attained by intellect. Heretofore, scholars have tried seriously to answer to the meaning of religious science and how to achieve it in theoretical knowledge. But naturally, the difference between the theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge propositions still leaves this question seriously that even if we accept the necessity and meaning of religious knowledge in the theoretical perceptions, could religious knowledge be accepted in practical perceptions too? When possible, what is the meaning of religious knowledge in practical perceptions? Also this article aims to state (1)the meaning of religious knowledge in these propositions and (2)affirm the possibility of religious knowledge in practical perceptions. From the perspective of the aim, the research method is fundamental, as it has used philosophical-rational analysis in the analysis and study of knowledge generation possibility in practical perceptions with the same procedure as in theoretical perceptions, and also in Studying the possibility and stating the meaning of religious knowledge in practical perceptions. By analyzing the logic of Sharia(Islamic legislative system) in legal and value-related concepts and rules, it is declared that the "perfection" of human is pivot point of the legal system and value system and all of concepts and Do and Do not's are affected by this pivot point. Hence, religious knowledge in Practical perceptions means coordination and conformity between (1) practical concepts and dos and donts and (2) the Islamic legal and value system. If our Muslim scholars can generate or rebuild practical perceptions in their sciences based on Islamic values and with the aim to achieving the perfections of human, then we would see the realization of religious knowledge in parts of knowledge (practical knowledge).
