<![CDATA[Unlike in conventional belief, Islamic epistemology is derived not only from the empirical (indrawi and rational ( aqli) sources, but also from the Divine Revelation (khabari), of which the saying of Allah (God) becomes a fundamental characteristic, along with any conduct, behavior and declaration of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
