The Nature of Muslim's sociology

Muslims’ sociology is a series set of systematic and methodical thoughts and ideas about social questions intended to satisfy man's needs and bring to him happiness and perfection. Earnest scientific endeavor should be made to investigate the identity and nature of Muslims’ sociology and its difference from other types of sociology, especially modern sociology. This study constitutes a step on the way to achieve this goal. The questions about Muslims’ sociology are based on Islamic principles and have special concepts, themes and issues which have lent it a true identity with a long history. Among the features of Islamic sociology are: ultra-historical identity, capacity for generalization, dependence on the principles of Islam, especially monotheism in ontology, critical realism based on revelation, reason and sense in epistemology, idealism and having a hierarchical approach to existence and social world.
