Abstract :
From the cognitive viewpoint, people’s psychological and physical health depends on how they view themselves and their universe. Given the prevalence of this view, the current research aims to consider how this notion is described in the Quran? The procedure in this work is descriptive (we collect data and information) on the basis of analyzing the concepts). We make an asymmetric comparison between Quran and the psychological data. The base of our work is considering keywords related to the subject. We collected information in libraries and used reliable sources like Quran interpretations and Hadiths. The findings showed that, from the point of view of the Quran, cognition is one of the major issues in anthropology and there are different words for describing it (such as Hikmat, Fiqh, Fikr, Nazar, Tadabbur, and so on). From the psychological viewpoint, self-analysis and knowing about our environment is enough, but in view of the Quran, this cognition is meaningful only in relation between humans and God, and the concept of logical and illogical thinking becomes clear only within the system of Tawhid (monotheism). Belief in Tawhid is right and logical and lack of belief in it results in psychological disorders.
