Abstract

Farabi is a great thinker, philosopher and scientist from the Farab region of Turkestan. He was a genius who created a clear understanding of the existence of reason not only for Islamic civilization, but also for the West and East. At the center of debates about state and religion, philosophy and science, science and religion, theism and atheism, existentialism and existence in the West in the last century, al-Farabi’s legacy is in immediate demand. This requirement is also relevant for today’s secular country – Kazakhstan. Obviously, we need the legacy of Farabi in order to get rid of the epidemic of the Salafi tendency in our country, the suffocation of reason, in order to clarify the relationship between reason and proverb in the relationship between state and religion.
