Summary: | Knowledge does not have a special definition that is inclusive and prohibitive. Rather, it means science in its broad sense. Therefore, the definitions that mention knowledge are not real, but are verbal. The theory of knowledge was presented as an independent science in Europe about three centuries ago, and the English philosopher John Locke was the first to write about it in the year (1960 AD), while this science faced a kind of inactivity during a long period of time among a segment of Muslim scholars, in which imitation prevailed over contemplation and reflection. This is the case in the West, and the theory of knowledge occupies an important position within the mental and philosophical researches.
