One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Relationship between Islam and Philosophy

This topic examines how Islam and philosophy relate: whether philosophy is compatible with revelation, how Muslim thinkers used reason in understanding faith, and why tensions sometimes arose between philosophers and theologians. For the exam, you must master the meanings of Islam, philosophy, revelation, and reason, and explain both the areas of harmony and the points of controversy.
