Abstract

Imam Ghazālī is the main originator of an integrative Islamic epistemology-based classification of knowledge. Where, the formulation begins with the elaboration of Islamic scientific schools, namely: Kalām, Falsafah, Bāṭinī, and Sufism. This article critically describes the epistemological elements in al-Ghazālī's view. This research is library research. This study concludes that Imam Ghazālī through the classification of his knowledge wants to clarify, that even though all these paths are valid and can be harmonized. This is what prompted Imam Ghazāl to prioritize Sūfī epistemology, where sharia, aqdah and morals in Islam are practiced at the level of ihsān as the main way. Thus, the essential elements related to the classification of knowledge are closely related to the four schools plus the flow of fiqh that he has studied since the beginning of his time of studying. More interestingly, this classification of knowledge can prevent Muslims from being disrupted by epistemology in this contemporary era by remaining based on recognized sources of Islamic epistemology

Abstract

Modern materialistic perspectives, combined with Western philosophical critiques that reject the existence of God, have contributed to the rise of atheistic worldviews. In response to this condition, this study aims to identify forms of atheistic rejection in Western philosophy, analyze Quranic thematic narratives related to faith and divine existence, and integrate both findings to demonstrate how the Qur’an addresses and counters atheistic thought. Using a qualitative literature-based method that employs Quranic thematic analysis and comparative philosophical analysis with references to classical and contemporary interpretations, this research finds that atheistic views reflected in the Qur’an include denial of the afterlife, moral accountability, religion, prophets, and the existence of God. The Qur’an counters these views through narratives on the purpose of life, the reality of the hereafter, divine justice, revelation, and prophetic guidance. This study contributes by offering a structured analytical framework that bridges Quranic epistemology and Western atheistic critique, highlighting the intellectual relevance of the Qur’an in addressing contemporary atheism
