| Summary: | Human soul is the mystery of God's creation and His divine verse in the slaves, it is
the source of knowledge and different information that is endless, it is also the source
of self-evident ideas, but in the same time, it is ambiguous and vague, there are
different views on the issue of soul, there are those who differentiate between the soul
and the spirit, and from there the view that saw they one thing, even in previous
religions and ancient philosophies and primitive beliefs, we find the belief that the self
is the object which represents the part of the human rational, and despite the different
naming for this wise object between these different doctrines and schools of thought,
however the emphasis is on the body more than the soul, perhaps because the body is
the concrete physical material, while the soul is the mysterious and invisible part of
human, so the sense of its existence needs to exercise a major effort to identify and
address it, therefore we can access and get knowledge of it and its illness, so that we
may cure these diseases and direct it to the right path of guidance. This paper clarify
the meaning of soul, which is commissioned for responsible activities, through which tends to the right and better ethics after the process of accounting, purifying and
direction, to emphasize that there is moral philosophy in Islam, and not as the
Westerners that it is a philosophy of Greek written in Arabic, to reach out to this
result the analytical descriptive method and the comparative method, have been used,
and arrived at the result that al-Razi came with several evidences to prove the
existence of the human soul, al-Razi opposed the Greek ideas of the human soul
transience, which is contrary to Islamic faith, the soul in the Islamic religion have the
status of eternity which is not transient. |
