The Impact of the Meaning of Life on Islamic Humanities according to Allameh Misbah Yazidi

The meaningful relationship between life and human sciences and its impact on the direction of humanities are one of the fundamental issues that has been less considered by thinkers, despite their immense importance. Of course, the debate about the meaning, absurdity of life and the nature of meaning of life are one of the topics that has always been the subject of discussion and its explanation is still the concern of philosophers and thinkers; each of them has tried to find a way to make life meaningful as per their own particular foundations, thus to supposedly illustrate an irreversible future for mankind. On the other hand, scholars in the humanities believe that they have employed their scientific efforts to pursue a better life for humanity. However, very few of them have directed their scientific endeavors towards a proper orientation of the sciences. Among the few insightful philosophers whose scientific efforts can be interpreted in the direction of elucidating the meanings of life, the late Allameh Misbah Yazdi stands out. Having clarified "the meaning of life" in his view, this paper aims to explain its impact on the necessary orientation of the humanities towards realizing the human meaning of life according to the monotheistic insight.
