    The Power of Reason and Its Domain (Part One)
    The age we live in is the age of technology and the Internet. Mankind has turned the world into a village with the extraordinary abilities that Allah Almighty has given him, and various kinds of thoughts and ideas have been published and spread among different sections of Islamic society. Due to the fact that new and elegant philosophies have attracted modern thinking, this question has always occupied the human mind, especially the educated and enlightened strata of different societies: “When a person has reason, is there a need for guidance from divine revelation?”
    In this article, we aim to express something about the role of reason and its root in recognizing objects, as well as its role in the legislation and Islamization of civil law. It goes without saying that the issue of Islamizing the law is very broad and complex; but as much as possible, we will consider a corner of it to clarify the relative knowledge of the range of reason and its limits. We hope that this small effort will be useful to our dear readers.
    Keywords: reason, religion, revelation, realm, domain.
    Introduction
    As we know, since birth, humans have had a brain, the power of thought and reasoning, which has grown and continues to evolve over time. When an individual gains the ability to make decisions in life and daily activities, he or she begins to think and analyze, managing the affairs around them with reason, wisdom, and innate talent.
    After this stage, a person progresses and rises; however, there are still limitations, and beyond a certain point, individuals do not possess the ability to act. In such circumstances, to strengthen the human mind in managing the affairs of life, a means superior to the mind has been provided, allowing them to overcome the problems of life in both this world and the next. This is akin to how computer manufacturing companies have introduced supercomputers to enhance the efficiency of computers.
    Islam teaches that one must use reason; however, only as far as it functions properly. There is a limit where reason becomes ineffective and yields incorrect answers. Like a computer, if you ask it to perform a function for which it was designed, it will respond immediately. But if you request a program that is not installed on your computer, not only will the computer fail to work, it may also provide incorrect answers. In the same way, for matters beyond the scope of reason, Allah has provided a third means: divine revelation. Whenever we attempt to rely on reason in those areas, it leads to erroneous conclusions.
