It begins with a central question: Do religion and science represent two parallel, and possibly conflicting, paths, or are they complementary within the authentic Islamic worldview upheld by the Imams of Ahl al-Bayt (A)?
The study demonstrates that Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) presented a unique model that elevates the value of science, considering it a means of drawing closer to God Almighty.
They encouraged their followers to seek beneficial knowledge, to reflect on the universe and existence, and regarded the scholar as the inheritor of the prophets. At the same time, they did not separate science from religion; rather, they emphasized the necessity for knowledge to be guided by divine direction and ethical values. The methodology adopted in this study is based on analysis and inference through the examination of reliable narrations, while also attempting to relate them to the contemporary intellectual context.
It concludes that, in the perspective of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them), religion and science are not adversaries but partners in the development of humanity and knowledge, and that their integration forms a foundation for civilizational and intellectual advancement.
