Abstract:   (1205 Views)
Religion, philosophy, and language are inseparable and important elements of every culture. Suppose a culture is supposed to be transmitted from one land to another and the target culture is assumed to become sublime due to this transmission. In that case, its components should be transmitted correctly, consciously, and fully observed by the cultural guardians to provide the required contexts for the acceptance, establishment, and growth of rationality and religion in society. Otherwise, a serious conflict occurs between the supporters of the previous culture and the supporters of the imported culture. In his works, al-Fārābī, while explaining the formation of these components in human society and their relationship, explains the way of their transmission and makes a good pathology. According to al-Fārābī, philosophy is created by developing language skills and man's acquisition of syllogism techniques. Philosophy uses religion to establish laws in society and guide people towards happiness.
