In this research, the two researchers discuss the most prominent Islamic schools that present the faith according to the methodology they have portrayed and pounded away to present, including the school of Al-Mutakallimin -Theologians- (a group of Muslim thinkers and theologians) and Salafism (a branch of Sunni Islam whose modern-day adherents claim to emulate "the pious predecessors" (al-salaf al-??li?; often equated with the first three generations of Muslims), as well as the most prominent challenges facing the Muslim public in general in understanding the Islamic faith, then the supreme methodology for presenting the faith that combines the mind, heart and conscience. The research problem lies in answering the following questions: Is there a doctrinal method and approach that combines the theoretical and practical aspects? What are the tools that help a Muslim understand his faith to touch his heart and conscience? What are the reasons for the disconnection of a Muslim’s behavior and morals from faith in his daily life? Moreover, the research aims to highlight the supreme approach that combines thought and conscience, as well as to suggest tools that help a Muslim establish his faith to touch his heart.
