| Summary: | The main focus of this paper is 'the intellect' and 'the poetic interpretation' found in
Nabahani's Majmu’ thalathah kutub'. In other words, this paper is an explanation of the
intellection, its functions, and veracity from the view of Nabahani. The paper shows some
comparison between the concept of the intellect (al-‘Aql) in Islam and other religions,
precisely Christianity. While the paper has Nabahani's opinion in focus, it has not claimed to
have represented everything he has said concerning the intellect and it has not limited the
views expressed herein to him alone. This paper is purposely focused on presenting the
poetic interpretation as projected by al-Nabahani himself; the poetic interpretational analysis
and commentation are beyond this paper and would be submitted in the major study of the
concept of the intellect. |
