Abstract
Abstract
Islamic (Ottoman) argumentation theories provide strong evidence that the argumentation theory advocated by
Ottoman theorists was epistemologically oriented, and has strong parallels with the argumentation theory of kalām
(dialectical theology); indeed Ottoman argumentation theory and kalām interacted intensively and influenced each
other. This article traces some snapshots of this discourse. In doing so, key concepts of Islamic (Ottoman) argumentation theories
are introduced.
