Abstract :This study deals with the reason as a source of knowledge. The reason is basic source of knowledge in Kalam. Without it, scientific knowledge has no any value at all. The knowledge obtained through senses and report/transmission is raw and needs to be evaluated by reason. Senses could be mistaken or could be short of evaluation in terms of what they sense. Reports (khabar) could be false, one-sided or deficient. So the knowledge obtained through these both needs to be verified by reason in order to have the criterion of objectivity. In conclusion, there is a unique source of knowledge, i.e. reason. Other sources are not independent sources of knowledge, rather they are the secondary aide of reason. Without reason the knowledge gained through senses and message have no any validation.
Keywords : The Reason, the senses, the report transmission, epistemology, source of knowledge
