According to Alrazi, this is the reason why the truth becomes silent and its nature is very closed. Second, Razi is a pure rationalism, makes reason as proof of God's existence, because through reason he can think about the problems of life.This study contributes to the development of new thoughts on scientific and Islamic discourse in Indonesia, particularly in the field of Islamic philosophy.
