Abstract

Philosophy was downplayed due to its apparent conflict with religion and scientific thought, which led to its rejection by some as a waste of time. Philosophy is influential and dangerous because it incites questioning and demands clarity in all things. This questioning spurs dialogue, which in turn leads to the objective presentation of issues and problems. Such objective presentation compels us to confront these issues systematically. The methodology represents the deepest revolution humanity has ever known, 'because it alone can teach us something new.' Consequently, it is the most powerful intellectual tool that humanity has developed, particularly through the work of philosophers. This area is often associated with theoretical speculation. To defend his values, Dr. Al-Bukhari asks crucial questions about what philosophy can bring through questioning, critical dialogue, and methodology. These skills are essential in our universities to effectively address contemporary challenges and restore human dignity and cosmic status in the face of dominant materialism. Philosophy is thus presented as the way to happiness, combining reflection, power of the mind, and action.
