"But We had already given the family of Ibraham the Scripture and wisdom." Qur'an, 5:54.
“Hikmah(wisdom) is justice in judging, and it is knowledge of the reality of things according to how they really are, and it has also been described as the established strength of knowledge-based logic. It has also been defined as reaching the truth with knowledge and action…and when it is said ‘ahkamahu,’ this means that one has been prevented from committing evil.”
Some scholars like Imam Shafi' interpret the word 'al-Hikmah' in verse 2:129 above as the Tradition or Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad S.A.W.W. Other scholars, such as the great Muslim scholar Ibn al-Qay'im al-Jawziyah in his book, Madarij al-Salikeen, defined 'al-Hikmah' scientifically and practically as follows:
