Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Islamic Concepts Islamic Thought and Research Methods The way in which a researcher schedules and performs his research work has its own direct influence on the outcome of the scientific product. Therefore, the research should be built on a solid ground of sound methods and suitable to the subject in question that the researcher probes into.

So, the research will be more fruitful and positive, besides leading along the lines of correct and accurate results; with regard to the scientific side; moreover, it helps the discovery and formation of scientific rules and principles.

Elsewhere, the scientific research methods have been defined as follows: `The approach that is utilized by scientists to plan the scientific bases and draw a conclusion about the knowledge obtained in light of those rules.'(2) The method of research has its own influence and plays a great role in the originality of thought, as well as, in the safety of contemplation, information, theories and deduced concepts.

Therefore, if the method of research and thinking is not an Islamic one or does not, at least, go along with its tendency, the effects will be too wrong to unite with the Islamic spirit. The research methods of science and knowledge are in two parts due to their nature: All General Methods (logical ones): These are general approaches, for scientific research, which deal with all science and human knowledge that are in common.

All Private Methods (technical ones): They are special styles, for scientific research, which specialize in a certain science such as; history, physics, belief, philosophy, jurisprudence principles, etc. It is obvious that there are some basic principles in common use among all the sciences and human knowledge; that is to say, the whole logical rules that the logic science deals with.

Therefore, logic science is defined as follows: `A science for teaching all the other general rules; on the basis of sound thinking'.

It is of great importance, among all the various research, that the joint, scientific thinking methodology commence from the point where any case has seemingly concluded until it can be proved by absolute evidence, and to become a reason for agreeing with the causation principle and justification based on human thinking which follows, naturally, along the path of logical rules.
