Abstract:
In Ibne- Hazms epistemology, as that of other classic foundationalists, knowledge is divided into basic beliefs (a priori knowledge) and non-basic beliefs (a posteriori knowledge). He has introduced a collection of syllogistic matters in Aristotelian logic, with extensions (denotations) different from those current at the time, as innate and perceptual knowledge. The other type of knowledge (non-basic beliefs) consists in these certain premises through essential demonstration. Drawing on Ibne- Hazms works on logic, theology and basic principles, the present article attempts to explain his views on perceptual experiences and intellectual understanding and to identify their strong points and limitations. Ibne- Hazms purpose in proposing his epistemology was to use it instrumentally in explaining Zahiriah beliefs, defending this school, criticizing its opponents, and creating a strong fulcrum for human sciences that can be employed for religious purposes. Therefore this theory is one of the important components of his intellectual system. Ibne- Hazm considered his theory of epistemology consistent with the Quranic verses and thought of its knowledge instruments as a divine bless consistent with the purpose of mans creation.
