Abstract:
Getting out of decadence is one of the major issues of thought of contemporary thinkers of the Arab world. The gap between the current situation of the Arab world and the Western world and the recognition of the main factors of this and how to get out of it has been a matter of concern. Mohammad Abed Al-Jabari, one of the prominent thinkers of the 80s and 90s of the 20th century, made the knowledge of tradition and how to reproduce it in the new world the center of his thought. After authoring the book "Al-Khattab al-Arabi al-Mudhamdin" (Contemporary Arabic Discourse), he focused his research on explaining a method to criticize the Arabic intellect, which became one the most controversial issues in the Arab world. In addition to giving a brief description of Mohammad Abid Jabri's project and the framework of his thinking about Shia and mysticism in Islamic history and culture, this article deals with the formulation of Arab thinkers' criticisms. The categorization of this critical view has been done based on the content, form and data of Jabri, which is remarkable for the inclusion of discussion and attention to his status in the Arab world. The main question of this article is the position of Mohammad Abed Al-Jabri among the thinkers of the Arab world. While expressing some of these criticisms, we judged them. Our method was descriptive analysis. The classification of these criticisms is in three levels: 1. Attitudinal-methodical criticism 2. Criticism of historical data 3. Criticism of structure. A purely structural view without considering the capacity of the Arab East to get out of the cultural situation of the new world while being influenced by Orientalists is one of the main problems of Jabri's project.
Machine summary:
2. Research Background Among the articles that have addressed the examination and critique of Jabri's views in his project titled "Critique of the Arab Reason," the following can be mentioned: -- The article "Mohammed Abed al-Jabri's Theological Approach in the Critique of Shiite Heritage," written by Mohammad Ali Mahdavi Rad and colleagues, published in (New Religious Thought, No. 53: 1397), examines Jabri's views and intends to show that, contrary to his claim in his project based on avoiding religious and theological critique, he has interpreted Shiism as a political movement rather than a religious sect.
-- An article titled "Examination and Critique of Mohammed Abed al-Jabri's Critical Approach to Arab-Islamic Rationality," written by Yahya Bouzari Nejad and colleagues and published in the journal (New Religious Thought, No. 67: 1400), analyzes and introduces Jabri's critical perspective in the critique of Arab reason.
In this research, an effort has been made to examine the endeavors of critics within a general framework and then address the main question of the article; a question that examines the position of Jabri's project, titled the critique of Arab reason, in clarifying Shiite thought from the perspective of thinkers in the Arab world.
(Jabri, 1389: 341) Finally, in his project of criticizing Arab reason, inspired by the thoughts of Corbin and Kamil Mustafa al-Shaybi (Al-Shaybi, 1408: 2/339; Haydari, 1387: 45), Jabri evaluates Hermetic-Gnostic teachings, Shiite mysticism, Ismailism, and the Ghulat on a structural level and analyzes them with an irrational description.
