Abstract
İslam is a religion of nature and it had been decreed by Allah as an answer to mankind. The answers which are offered by İslam have to have one to one correspondence within human needs. Humans have three dimensions which are beliefs, deeds, and mo-rality. Similarly religion should also have three aspects. İn the Quran, Al-lah the Greatest presents this correspondence through the examp-le of good tree. The tree's roots correspond to beliefs; trunks and branches to deeds; and fruits to morality. However these parts cannot be separated in reality.A tree only becomes a tree and produces fruit if it has all the com-ponents in place. Similarly, in order for a human to be moral, he/she has to maintain a life with the integrity of beliefs and deeds. Thus, Basic İslamic Sciences has been established to explain these three dimensional reality and to convey this produced knowledge to generation to generation.K
