Abstract

Interdisciplinary studies have recently become an important field of study in the West, affecting both education and research. In our country, some research institutions have been encouraging these studies for some time. The fundamental question is whether these studies can be pursued primarily in the field of Islamic sciences or not? What is its origin and requirements? This article examines the epistemological and non-epistemological existential origins of interdisciplinary as well as the intrinsic requirements and realization of interdisciplinary. The studies conducted in the present article show that it is possible to re-read and redefine interdisciplinary by considering its origin and requirements in the field of Islamic sciences; On the other hand, if we do not pay attention to the stated origins, we will undergo intellectual and cultural transformation in these studies and we will lose our scientific identity in the face of this type of knowledge. This article is written by analytical-comparative method.
