Conceptual Creative Realism as a methodological model of Islamic science: A critical review

The aim of the present study was a review of “Conceptual Creative Realism” as a methodological model of Islamic science (Iman & Kelateh Sadati, 1392). The model had some strong points including a new presentation of science structure as well as a new definition congruent with the Islamic point of view entered in a new paradigm. Also, the model defined knowledge’s hierarchical in different way where the God’s laws would be at the top of this hierarchical. Reality is further up observations and objective experiences as well as the correct criterion defined according to Islamic direction. In the other side, the model had some weakness points including speaking in general, not specified, and missing link between the different concepts, as well as having ambiguity responding this question that how we can specified the borders between the different knowledge sources such as sensation experiences, wisdom and intuition. In sum, the model evaluated as an effective model which could have valued contribution to the Islamic science.
