Research on Components of Universal Concept of Wisdom in its Quranic Concept
From a long time ago, the word "wisdom" has been considered by Islamic scholars as one of the primary meanings in the field of cognition in Quran. On the other hand, wisdom can be considered as a universal concept which broad literature has been done around it in contemporary time in west. In this era, this concept has been studied from various dimensions of philosophy, religion, morality, and psychology. In this essay, the Qur'anic concept of wisdom has been analyzed in an asymmetric comparison to the universal concept of wisdom by usage of linguistic evidences, including etymology of wisdom and its syntagmatic and contextual relations in Quran. The results indicate that the Qur'anic concept of wisdom continuing its Semitic conception is a constructed concept with a great sense of knowledge which corresponds to the universal concept defined in the form of the theory of “confrontation between human-oriented and speech-oriented”. This constructed concept implies a great relationship between science and practice and practical knowledge such as skill. In the Qur'an, wisdom has been used in two different concepts: a) a moral character and an anthropological ability in dealing with life in general; and b) the collection of teachings that are result of this ability. The first concept is a scarce gem that the Almighty God gives merely to his special servants, however the second concept is set of teachings issued by the wise God and wise human for guidance of people. Most of these teachings are moral advises that relies on theoretical cognition stated in brief.
