Kelamcıların Problemleri Ele Alışında"Çevre" Unsurlarının Etkisi: "Elem Problemi Örneği"

Abstract

Mutakallimun have carried out important functions particularly during the period of expansion when they faced with different cultures and religions and they have never fallen within a simple form of religious defense. In fact, they have contributed a new horizon to the Islamic thought by putting forward new theories and establishing new issues. However, their primary concern has been introducing Islam to non-muslim quarters. This study aims to demonstrate how Qadi Abuljabbar handled a theological problem according to environmental factors. The Qadi tackles the problem of suffering with rational justification, dispelling the worries of non-muslims.
