Shemsuddin Samarqandi’s Understanding of Prophecy
Journal Title: Journal of the Human and Social Science Researches - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
In this study, we try to reveal Shemsuddin al-Samarqandi’s opinion on prophecy who has works on many different areas, notably Kalam. Samarqandi who doesn’t gain traction enough which he deserves in our intellectual history makes a remarkable principle in order to prove prophecy: “not to claim something that wisdom never accept.” According to Samarqandi, people who are answerer for revelations evaluate the offer with wisdom. Thereby the revelation which addresses to the wisdom mustn’t include a discrepancy, an information and an offer that the wisdom refuses. Also he sees the invitation of the prophet that contains obedient to god and avoiding to riot, as a moral and conscientious way of demonstration. He reveal the reason-based and transfer-based evidence in order to confute proofs of not only groups which refuse prophecy but also Jews, Christians and Zoroastrians who don’t believe in prophecy of Mohammad while they believe in prophecy.
