Islamic philosophy is a knowledge that is associated with the Islamic religion, and the reasons behind this association have sparked numerous debates. One of the methods used to prove the Islamic nature of this philosophy is to assess its alignment with the scientific principles of Islam. Understanding a field of knowledge involves examining its scientific principles, such as its subject matter, definition, and issues, and the ‘purpose’ or objective of the field is one of these principles. Assessing the alignment of the purpose of philosophy with the Islamic faith assists us in comprehending the reasons for associating this philosophy with Islam. Islamic philosophers have mentioned various goals for philosophy either within the context of defining philosophy or as independent objectives. This study collects these goals through library research and then applies a descriptive-analytical method to assess their relationship with the objectives outlined by the religion for creation, the mission of prophets, or the revelation of heavenly books. The goals of philosophy can be categorized into five categories: knowing the truth of things, knowing Almighty Allah, completing souls, attaining similarity to Allah, and transforming into a rational world. Among these goals, ‘knowing the truth of things’ is considered the most important goal. These goals are in line with or at least influenced by the teachings of Islam. This analysis demonstrates that Islamic philosophers have taken into account the ultimate and goals set forth in the Islamic faith for human life and have enumerated the same goals using philosophical language.
