| Abstract | ||
| The issue of keeping the produced knowledge by oriental and contemporary Arab writings about the heritage and thought of Abu Al-Hasan Al-Hamadani (970-893 A. D.) without analysis and criticism a real problem that has its consequences and reflections on the question of producing objective knowledge concerning Al-Hamadani’s heritage and thought. The researcher aims to verify, analyse and criticise the produced knowledge by oriental and contemporary Arab writings of Al-Hamadani’s heritage and thought relying on historical and critical sociological approaches starting from the systematic openness doctrine and the opportunities and possibilities it introduce to approach the raised issues under question. The researcher found that there are cognitive and methodological obstacles facing oriental and contemporary Arab writings and thus hinder an objective evaluation related to the achieved knowledge of Al-Hamadani and in determining the location it deserves in history of science and human thought. The researcher shows the need of oriental and contemporary Arab writings for adopting the historical approach, the critical sociological approach and modern scientific translation, to complete the process of investigation, analysis and translation of Al-Hamdani’s texts on scientific bases and which leads to the production of an objective knowledge and the formation of an objective awareness of the heritage and thought of Abu Al-Hasan Al-Hamadani. | ||
