In its classical times, k alām, Islamic theology, was k nown or even notorious for its dialectical character, namely its problematic, speculative, and disputatious way of discourse. In this long period, however, k alām always remained essentially a discipline of fiqh, one that aims “understanding” the Islamic revelation. Since its inception, k alām has been faced with many challenges caused by dialectic, which it owned much as well, but this particular method has never been its essential character as the “new k alām” movement in modern period has proved . This article is an attempt to characterize what we may call the “classical k alām” in terms of methodology and from a historical point of view
