Analyzing the tradition, hadith, of self-knowledge with regard to the knowledge of God

  Deep thinking on the tradition and analyzing other tradition dealing with knowledge of human soul distinguish this proof from those of philosophers and theologians. Availability, unity of the path and the follower and, most particularly, its being intuitive enter the follower to an objective state and, contrary to conceptual proofs, leads him/her to the presence of God. Again, this traditional proof provokes the follower to self-purification in such a manner that he/she threads Divine way. Studying the traditions on knowledge of human soul and reasonable studies of Muslim scholars and their different approaches might be useful in the ground. Key words: knowledge of soul, knowledge of God, knowledge by correspondence, knowledge by persistence.
