description Islam has its own golden history almost in every sectors of knowledge. The main theological doctrine of Islam, Al Quran also gives the utmost emphasize on pursuing knowledge. Muslim scholars from the past were very much aware of this instruction given by Allah s.w.t and they were very much captivated onto that. They developed many ideas and theories in the field of knowledge. This paper will try to shed a light on few works that have been carried out by the Muslim scholars.
