The study of the relationship between reason and religion and religion and reason is among one of the preliminary and necessary issues in sociology of religion. Its results, besides affecting the perspective, will also leave considerable impacts on the thematology of this branch of sociology and will help the scholars of religion and experts to take a correct stance and follow an appropriate policy towards the two recently emerged issues, i.e. “religion-making of reason” and “religionization of science”. After reviewing the possible and perceived relations between reason and religion, attempts have been made in this paper to reveal the border between admissible and inadmissible religionization. Also Islam’s approach to reason has been briefly studied. The findings of the paper show that Islam provides a vast domain for independent intellectual reflections, one of whose offspring is reason, and there is no religious and intellectual obligation for the separation of the path and opening of a special chapter called religious science.
