INTERDISCIPLINARY ISSUE FOR STUDY OF THE ETHICAL CONCEPTS OF ISLAMIC THINKERS

Аннотация

In this paper has been investigated the ethical concepts articulated by Islamic thinkers through an interdisciplinary lens, aiming to bridge the gap between various academic disciplines in understanding these complex ideas. The study's primary objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of how Islamic ethical thought can be interpreted across different scholarly perspectives, thereby contributing to a more nuanced understanding of Islamic philosophy. Keywords: Interdisciplinary Studies, Islamic Philosophy, Moral Pluralism, Ethical Theories, Muslim Scholars Medieval Islamic philosophy represents a rich intellectual tradition that has had significant influence on such fields as ethics, metaphysics, and theology. Despite its importance, a systematic study of these texts is hampered by their sheer volume and complexity, as well as the difficulties of interpreting manuscripts spanning several centuries and regions. Traditional methods of textual analysis, while valuable, often fail to capture the full breadth of themes and conceptual connections in these works. Recent advances in digital technology, particularly natural language processing (NLP), are opening up new possibilities for analyzing these texts in ways previously unimaginable. The ethical concepts developed by Islamic thinkers have long been subjects of scholarly interest, yet their complexity and the diverse contexts in which they were formulated have often resulted in fragmented analyses. Islamic ethical thought, deeply rooted in religious, philosophical, and cultural traditions, presents a rich tapestry of ideas that have influenced not only Islamic societies but also global ethical discourse. However, previous studies have largely focused on these ethical concepts within isolated academic disciplines, which has limited the scope of understanding their broader implications [1]. Studies have shown that interdisciplinary approaches can provide more comprehensive insights into complex subjects by integrating perspectives from various fields [2, 3]. In the context of Islamic ethics, such an approach is particularly valuable, as it allows for the exploration of how these concepts 92 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference resonate across different domains of knowledge, including philosophy, theology, and cultural studies [4, 5]. Moreover, recent research has highlighted the potential of discourse analysis to uncover the underlying themes and narratives that shape ethical thought [6, 7]. Thematic Network Analysis has also been recognized as an effective method for identifying patterns and relationships within complex datasets [8, 9]. The objective of the current study was to investigate the ethical concepts of Islamic thinkers through an interdisciplinary lens, utilizing discourse analysis and Thematic Network Analysis to uncover new insights into these ideas. The study employed a cross-sectional dataset to capture a wide range of perspectives, providing a comprehensive analysis that integrates multiple disciplines [10]. By doing so, this research aims to bridge the gap between different academic fields, offering a more nuanced understanding of Islamic ethical thought [11]. The principal theme of this paper is that an interdisciplinary approach not only enriches the analysis of these ethical concepts but also enhances their relevance in contemporary ethical discussions [12]. This study seeks to contribute to the ongoing dialogue in Islamic studies by providing fresh perspectives on the ethical dimensions of Islamic philosophy and their significance in a global context. The analysis conducted in this study revealed significant insights into the ethical concepts articulated by Islamic thinkers. Through the use of interdisciplinary discourse analysis and Thematic Network Analysis, several key themes and patterns were identified, offering new perspectives on Islamic ethical thought. The results are presented in the same order as the objectives outlined in the Introduction, with a focus on the most representative and statistically significant findings. The interdisciplinary discourse analysis uncovered a complex web of ethical concepts that were deeply embedded in the linguistic and cultural contexts of Islamic thought. The analysis identified key ethical themes such as justice, morality, and the relationship between individual and collective responsibility. These themes were examined across various texts, revealing how they were articulated differently depending on the philosophical and theological traditions they were rooted in. The analysis revealed several newly observed patterns in Islamic ethical thought. Notably, the study identified a strong emphasis on the integration of rational and spiritual ethics, suggesting that Islamic thinkers did not see a dichotomy between reason and faith but rather viewed them as complementary 93 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference forces
