A Critical Study on Experience-Based Religious Thought

This paper has intended to examine experience-based religious thought critically. As is understood by the study, on this manner of thought one may not follow Divine law by heart. Empiricism in the field of metaphysics would lead to a quantitative interpretation of revelation, miracle and prophetic states. Such a way may not lead to the discovery of the truth. The view of Bazargan, as an example for some contemporary scholars, has been discussed in the paper. Though he has known man obliged to Islamic law and emphasized it and has considered Divine unity and everlasting happiness as the final aim of Prophet, regarding some part of his view that challenges realism, Divine administration and religious leadership, one can never be a real religious man and attain Divine content.
