The Role of Intuitive Knowledge in the Evolution of Man from the Standpoint of the Quran

One of the human cognitions that has a great impact on his perfection is intuitive knowledge. Using a descriptive-analytical method, this paper studies the positive and negative role of human intuitive knowledge in human evolution from the perspective of the Quran in the context of thematic interpretation. The findings indicate that some verses indicate that man's intuitive knowledge of himself and God is the same as perfection and has a positive role in his perfection. According to another group of verses, God Himself imparts intuitive knowledge to some special servants, which increases their perfection. Other verses also show that some present knowledge can have a negative effect on human perfection. Evil temptations and feeling needless are among these knowledges.
