摘要：The discussion about Islamic psychology is a challenge to a controversial issue which is related to some different meanings that come from this concept. This research discusses whether Islamic psychology is a priori or a posteriori. The main question is whether the Islamic psychology is an actual and realized nature or a potential concept and a realizable possibility. In response, it has been tried to be argued that the nature of Islamic psychology is a posteriori. According to the Reichenbach's theory (the separation of collection from judgment), there are three key assumptions in this issue: first, Islamic psychology is a type of religious science, therefore, it is a possible concept; second, philosophy lack is not equal to experimental nullity, thus, realizing Islamic psychology does not mean that contemporary psychology theories will be denied; and third, the importance of assumptions of scientific theories is what its consequence will be to pay attention to infrastructure of current psychology theories and to attempt to formulate new theories based on Islamic assumptions.
