This paper is an effort to understand al-Mufidʹs concept of kal?m in a comparative way, and to understand what he was doing, and what he meant to do and tried to do. Arguing that there is a fundamental difference between kal?m and theology, I will try, then, (1) to say something about al-Mufidʹs own concept of kal?m, and (2) then see how he carried it out, and after that (3) compare it with the theological method.
