The problem of mutual relationship between social factors and types of knowledge, which is called "social determination of knowledge", is the external objectivity of knowledge from a social point of view or the impression and identification that different types of human knowledge receive from social factors. The components of this mutual relationship include depth, degree, level, dominant factor and subject. Muhammad Husayn Tabatabai believes that apart from obvious, present, general theoretical knowledge and some general practical knowledge, the rest of knowledge is under the influence of biological, environmental, unseen and social cultural factors that this effect is contingent and does not even reach the stage of causation. The main focus of these epistemological developments is the credibility, especially the post-social credibility, which is completely socially determined. Max Scheler proposed the form and content of knowledge, which considers the content immune from social determination and considers only the form of knowledge to be socially determined. Of course, Tabatabai and Scheler both believe that there is no causality between the community and knowledge and the influence of the community is only to the extent necessary. According to Scheler's opinion, spiritual and real factors jointly determine knowledge. Of course, only the three forms of knowledge of religion, philosophy and science are targeted for determination. Therefore, the extract of Tabatabai's theory goes back to the discussion of validity and Scheler's theory of the form and content of knowledge.

The relationship between knowledge and value is a subject of interest within the realm of transethics. To that end, Soroush has put forth the theory of knowledge and value separation. The purpose of this article is to delineate the fundamental components of Soroush’s theory through the application of descriptive-analytical methodology. Five factors, according to the research findings, influenced Soroush’s conception of this notion: adhering to positivists’ definitions and differentiations of sciences; the notion that the deduction of “must” from “is” violates the principles of logic; believing that values are nothing more than credits; consider scientific ethics to be an impersonal branch of ethics; the conviction that scientific ethics and determinism are inextricably linked. As evidenced by the research findings, deriving “oughts” from “beings” does not necessitate a connection between knowledge and value; rather, it enables the development of ethics through reliance on facts (beings) rather than determinism and impersonality. In reality, the moral provisions are the same necessity that exists between human action and its consequences. Science can also encompass non-experimental knowledge; it comprises experimental knowledge as well as intellectual, mystical, narrative, and philosophical knowledge.

Tafkik School is one of viewpoints that's been established to explain the divine-Islamic epistemes and the ways to acquire them. Mirza Mehdi Isfahani and his pupil Sheikh Mahmoud Halaby are the founders. Is this case the question is what is the speculation and rationality means and what is the relation between rationality and understanding of Islam. They do believe that rationality is the main concealment to acquire the depth of Islamic thoughts and epistemes.so they stood against every rational approaches. In their thoughts using the argument and being rational is the main thing that make them miss understand. Therefore they are claiming that even all self-evident ideas are darkness and Islamic cognition through this approach is a wrong path and make people go astray. Establishment an argument to achieve the true-Islamic Idea make Islam demolish and it is against the righteousness.
