پایگاه اطلاع رسانی اسراء: پروفسور مولیادی کارتانگارا (Prof. Mulyadhi Kartanegara)، استاد فلسفه اسلامی دانشگاه اسلامی جاکارتا از کشور اندونزی، صبح امروز با حضور در بیت آیت الله العظمی جوادی آملی با ایشان دیدار و گفتگو کرد. ​​​​​​​

Isra's news agency: Professor Mulyadhi Kartanegara, (professor of Islamic philosophy at the Islamic University of Jakarta,Indonesia) attend the house of Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli and met with him and discussed issues of Islamic philosophy with the Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli.

In this meeting, Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli stated that the value of any science lies in its subject. "the whole value of a science lies in the known, if someone knows the known well, his knowledge is valuable, and if one does not know the known correctly, he is not successful in that science", he said.

​​​​​​​"the subject of knowledge, whether it is in the sky or earth, whether it is about human or not, it is a creature of Allah. Allah presented the knowledge to us. Because Allah created the Knowns, he has the information of any known.", he said.

Also he continued, "All the knowns whether from sky or earth, whether about human or about any other parts of universe or the connection between this two, there is a common fact about all of them. All knowns have three common elements:  قَالَ رَبُّنَا الَّذِي أَعْطَىٰ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلْقَهُ ثُمَّ هَدَىٰ "Our Lord is He who gave everything its creation and then guided it." 20/50 when the pharaoh said to prophet Moses who is the God you are representing him? The Prophet Moses answered him, my God is the one who created everything in triangular shape; means whatever is in the sky and earth has three aspects. Allah created everything, orderly and by preserving all internal and purposeful elements

Then in explanation Ayatollah Javadi stated, "One side of mankind is the system related to his creator; this is the first side. Also, internal system that was created scientifically and scholarly; this is the second side. This is a system that was purposefully created, it is not vain and purposeless; this is the third side. These means the first side is "monotheism", created by God. the second side is "knowledge"; He created scientifically. the third side is "purposeful", He created wisely.

Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli by explaining that there is no being unless it has these three sides, stated, "Humanity has mutilated this triangle today. I mean mankind depredated the side of the relation to its creator; Also, the side of the purposes of the system which is the third side, therefore the question of "who created the earth?" is the unanswered question. "For what did you create?" is a unanswered. This mutilated triangle is an unanswered question about man, "Who created man?" mankind of today neither asks nor answers, "What was man created for?", he neither questions nor answers, this mutilated triangle is a mortuary corpse, and a mortuary corpse cannot solve its own problems, let alone solving the problems of others.

The mankind today faces the universe like this. He knows a lot but dealing with a corps of this universe. He conceives the earth as a corps, sky as a corps. Travel from earth to sky as a corps. Then he does not know what he must do?!

Grand Ayatollah Javadi Amoli, in response to Professor Mulyadhi Kartanegara's question about the "importance of philosophy in the contemporary world", stated, "Because the essence of philosophy is worldview and we are part of the universe, self-knowledge is one of the issues of philosophy. "who am I?", "Where have I come from?", "where am I going to go?", and "what is my provision for this journey?", I am facing eternity. The origin, which is the first, is determined by philosophy. the resurrection, which is the end, is determined by philosophy. What are my duties between the beginning and the end is determined by philosophy. The phenomenon of revelation and the Prophethood is determined by philosophy. the question of resurrection is determined by philosophy, most importantly, philosophy also determines the relationship between man and the universe which  God adjusted would be determined by philosophy. However philosophy should be learned through the Qur'an.

At the end of this meating he addressed professor Mulyadhi Kartanegara, "My suggestion is that your country should live according to the Qur'an, and stand with the Qur'an. This Qur'an speaks to all people at their level, it considers the world to be alive, it considers it to be purposeful, it considers man to be eternal and it says that nothing will be perished.  the hand that did wrong, gave a bribe or received a bribe when it enters the Allah's court in the day of ultimat trial, when God asks through the prophets and divine agents, what you have done if he denies it, this hand will testify. if this happens, if this view is formed for man that the hand is alive, perceptive, memorizes, trusty, speaks for god in the trial, objects are preceptive, earth will testify, hands and legs will testify, Such a person does not go astray and does not block anyone's way.
