THE INNATE NATURE BETWEEN RELIGION AND SCIENCE

This research addresses the topic "The Innateness of Knowledge and Fitrah in Islam: Between Religion and Science," exploring the relationship between human nature and the innate knowledge with which a person is born, according to the Islamic perspective. The research begins by explaining the concept of "Fitrah" in the Qur'an, highlighting that Allah has created humans with an innate understanding of basic truths such as the existence of God and the fundamentals of religion. It also reviews the opinions of scholars and theologians on the issue of innate knowledge and its impact on human understanding of existence. Additionally, the research discusses the role of Fitrah in shaping human religious and spiritual identity, emphasizing that Islam teaches all people are born with this nature, which guides them toward the truth. The research further clarifies how belief in God and the concept of His Oneness (Tawhid) are inherent parts of the Fitrah that humans are born with. It also examines the influence of this Fitrah on human understanding of both religious and scientific knowledge. Finally, the research presents some recent scientific studies that align with these Islamic concepts, such as psychological studies that affirm that children are born capable of understanding Tawhid and religious nature.
