	'''Muʿtazila''' (Arabic:{{ia\| ~~المعتزلة~~}}) refers to a group of [[Sunni]] Muslims who famously consider the [[Intellect]] (al-'aql) to trump, or be prior to, the [[Tradition]] (al-naql). The Mu'tazila are closer than other Sunni [[kalam\|theologians]] to [[Imami]] theologians.		'''Muʿtazila''' (Arabic:{{ia\| الْمُعْتَزِلَة}}) refers to a group of [[Sunni]] Muslims who famously consider the [[Intellect]] (al-'aql) to trump, or be prior to, the [[Tradition]] (al-naql). The Mu'tazila are closer than other Sunni [[kalam\|theologians]] to [[Imami]] theologians.

	The Mu'tazila believed that the theoretical reason should evaluate what we learn through divine [[revelation]]. This principle cultivated in some theses in the intellectual system and religious beliefs of the Mu'tazila, providing them with a particular conception of [[monotheism]] and divine justice. Thus, they tried to interpret away the religious texts which were apparently at odds with the reason. For example, they denied, and interpreted away, the possibility of seeing God which is apparently mentioned in some religious texts, because according to the reason, it is not possible to see without a space and a spatial direction, and since God is beyond any space and direction, it is not possible to see Him in this world, nor in the [[afterlife]]. Some Mu'tazili beliefs are explicitly contrary to the ones agreed upon by other Sunni Muslims.
