Summary/Abstract: There are different classifications of sciences in the history of science in Islam, but despite their differences, we can generally talk about the meaning of the phrase “religious science”. What are these sciences and what is their difference with general sciences? Which characteristics make a science religious, and which make it secular?

In this paper, we will try to gather these answers within the framework of three universal groups.
