This research is dealing with the comparison between two kind of theology: Christian theology on the base of language games and the Islamic school of Tafkik regarding the relationship between reason and religion. These two theologies have chosen the same way of separation between reason and religion. They have similarities like “revelation as the exclusive source of religious knowledge”, “criticizing of rational, philosophical and mystical theology”, “criticizing of evidentialism”. But there are also deferences between them in the origin of their theory, the motivation and the explanation.  What it has done in this research is to reflect deeper on these similarities and dissimilarities and also to do s.th in comparative theology. It wants to make them to have a dialogue with each other and make benefited from one another. For example theology of Wittgenstein can help theology of Tafkik in its language and system.
