Summary/Abstract: The author here presents the thought of Abu Mensura Al- -Maturidi (died in 944), a renowned scholar related to aqaid and the issue of epistemology. The significance of his teachings here lies in the fact that the Muslims in Bosnia and Herzegovina are among the custodians of this imam’s heritage. Imam Al-Maturidi lived in a turbulent age when clear answers to essential theological issues were required. Understanding of epistemology in general and religious epistemology in particular is a hallmark of this imam.
