Abstract
 
Nowadays man is not just seeking to discover and understand the unknowns; rather, he tries to achieve the logic of possession, change and redesign; in other words, when he starts discovering an unknown, he does not want to discover any unknown, but he tends to discover the one which gives him the power to change, construct and produce. Of course, this human effort includes not only the natural world but also the human relations and social institutions. In order to achieve this intended purpose, the humanities are employed.
Due to neglecting the element of " construction" and its logical design, Muslim communities have treated the findings in the western countries, especially in the humanities, such as law, politics, economics, and so on, as new subjects and attempted to deal with or apply them by the logic of "knowledge"; the findings which have been designed based on the logic of construction in accordance with the theoretical foundations and cultural-historical ecology in the western countries. This fact not only has not helped the Muslim community but also has caused disharmony in the epistemic and social structure of Muslims. The basic strategy is that the Muslim thinkers should be able identify the needs in this area by designing the logic of construction based on the epistemic and other foundations, and should be able to design and manage cultural, legal, political, and economic institutions and structures according to those needs.
This paper tries to achieve the main elements of the logic of construction and their explanation by separating "the logic of knowledge" from "the logic of construction".
