Today on Be Quranic, day 57, we continue exploring ayah 32 of Surah al-Baqarah, focusing on the distinct types of knowledge: revelation-based, known to angels, and discovery-based, unique to humans.
Both forms are divinely sourced, underscoring the Quran's emphasis on contemplation of the universe as a means to appreciate Allah's greatness.
We delve into Imam al-Ghazali's categorisation of knowledge into Fard 'ain (individual obligation) and Fard kifayah (communal obligation), highlighting the necessity for Muslims to master foundational religious duties (Fard 'ain) and encouraging them to pursue specialized fields beneficial to the community (Fard kifayah).
This approach balances personal faith obligations with societal contributions, advocating for expertise in diverse areas as an act of religious responsibility and excellence.
