Kalam

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kalām (Arabic: علم الكلام, literally "speech" or "words")[1] is the Islamic discipline of seeking theological knowledge through dialectic (debate and argument). It also promotes prudence and logical reasoning. A practitioner of kalām is called a mutakallim (plural mutakallimiin).
