Investigating the relationship between critical thinking and questioning method in proving monotheism based on Quranic verses

The basis of critical thinking is based on logical and reasoning thinking with analysis and inference, and one of the practical methods in this thinking is reasoning. In this thinking, in most cases, the preliminaries are stated and the result is left to the other side; That is, the most common use of critical thinking is through questioning. On the other hand, in matters of belief in the Holy Quran, it is based on thinking, reasoning and conclusion by the audience, and one of the most important methods of the Quran in expressing monotheistic arguments is the same method that is called critical thinking today. In the present article, the verses of the Quran have been examined with the focus on the argument in monotheism, which is in the form of questioning and often in the form of "rhetorical question" and "confessional question". The results of the research show that in matters of belief, the principle is based on thinking and reflection and is accompanied by logical conclusions and most of the verses in this field contain critical thinking, and there is a direct and comprehensive relationship between the method of questioning in the monotheistic discussions of the Quran and critical thinking.
