Faith in Qur’anic revelation unveils all the possibilities that lie before the human intellect.

To the extent that in one’s act of faith one participates in the truth through reason and heart, faith already implies a particular level of knowledge and of certainty.

Rationalism is false not because it seeks to express reality in rational mode, so far as this possible, but because it seeks to embrace the whole of reality in the realm of reason, as if the reason coincides with the very principle of things.

Islam deals not only with what man must and must not do, but also with what he needs to know. In other words, Islam is both a way of acting and doing things and a way of knowing.
