Abstract

In recent times, result of failure of atheism, Deizm has begun to prominence. Because atheism puts nature into God on the other side while ignoring God from one side. Thus, while explaining the existence of man, he accepts the exintence a non-superhuman will and power by puting nature in the position of God. Atheists, therefore, view nature as a creator who does not interfere with human behavior. When God's faith, which is a will and power outside of supernatural, can not be denied, people are turning towards deizm in the second step. Because deizm denies the religious obligations that Allah sends to prophets and books in the face of accepting God's creative grace. While advocating this, Allah expresses that the human mind and the world created it in the most perfect way without the need for intervention. In this article, Kelam's argument is about how a defensive style is revealed against deizm. It is explained that the reverence of wisdom in the science of wisdom and acceptance of the perfect order in the creation of the universe will not lead to a loss of attitude towards deizm due to the need of the creature, the limit of the mind, and the adaptation to the creation of the realm. Both the world to sustain its existence need Allah's continuation of creation and human mind, need the divine guidance sent by the prophets to preserve the social order against the temptations of the self and the devil.
