Abstract
This paper discusses Murtadha Mutahhari's thoughts on historical philosophy and aims to reconstruct Murtadha Mutahhari's thoughts regarding his historical philosophy from an Islamic perspective. The methods used are heuristics, source criticism, interpretation and historiography. The study results show differences of opinion between the concept of western historical philosophy and Murtadha Mutahhari's philosophy of Islamic history. The concept of western philosophy of history holds that the philosophy of history from the point of view of the nature of history is material or material, from the point of view of history, the law is determinism, and from the point of view of the movement of history or economic factors determine historical development. Meanwhile, according to Murtadha Mutahhari that the philosophy of history in terms of the nature of history is not only material in nature but also intangible and supramaterial in nature, in terms of history law is divided into three laws (determinism, divinity, and human endeavor), and in terms of historical movement or historical development it is determined by human self.
