Abstract

Ibn Khaldun was a thinker who has been dealt with in many ways by social scientists. These evaluations are mostly about her umran, asabiyah and state views. However, we need to have a good understanding of his methodology in order to fully understand and convey Ibn Khaldun's umran, asabiyah, and state etc. views. In this sense, our article will be based on the methodology we see as the essential element in the understanding of Ibn Khaldun. Ibn Khaldun, who moves the mind and the senses together, takes the umran to a realistic basis and uses it in explaining the material elements, wants to discover the regularities in the cause-effect relationship, is a very important thinker both for his / her period and the period we live.
