@article{2013,title={UNDERSTANDING OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF ABU’L-HASAN EL-KHARAKANİ},abstractNode={In this article, Abu'l-Hasan al-Kharakani’s view of science and scholars are discussed. Throughout his life, al-Kharakani, who tried to understand and lived Islam, is a lover of God and studied Islamic sciences and took lessons from the great Islamic scholars of the period. He is an Islamic thinker who learned the Quran and the authentic Sunnah very good and deepened in mysticism topics. In this study, contrary to the claims, it was reached the conclusion that he is not "Ummi". He is a competent Sufi both in the exact sciences and esoteric topics. According to his understanding of science, the important thing is that person knows himself, has knowledge enough to live his religion and act in accordance with what they have learned in a way sincere. It is not correct that introduce him as one who is “ummi” or does not value science and scholars. Indeed, his warnings to scholars can be said that aimed at so-called scholars who do not act in accordance with his knowledge, is attached to world, forget that will account for hereafter, engage in leisure things and do not work day and night in the way of God. al-Kharakani continued his development such as walking on the line of Companions, utilized the knowledge and accumulations of the friends of God lived before and became heir and a good follower of their ideas. He understood that the main aim of existance was helping the humanity and especially attracted the attention that this helping was a kind of “educating the humanity”. According to his idea a person (a humanbeing) must support the lifelong education and apply it to his/her real life. },author={Ahmet Emin SEYHAN},year={2013},journal={The Journal of Academic Social Science Studies}}
