Abstract

The aim of this research is to analyse the origin of morals, with respect to reality and theology, from the viewpoint of Kant theory of
morals and Adliyah theologians. Real or unreal origin of moral “musts” and its relationship with religion can be studied ontologically.
This survey, which was conducted through a conceptual and deductive analysis method, shows that according to Kant and 'Adliyah
theologians, “musts” stem from the fact that Kant believes that “reason” explores both moral laws and makes them necessary. 'Adliyah
theologians suggest that reason is just able to explore moral laws which have become necessary by God to reach the ultimate
perfection. The Adliyah theologians’ opinion in the origin of morals is an innovation in the topic of morals. This research therefore sets
precedence in the exploration of the Adliyah theologians’ opinion on morals and also recommend further research in this regard.
