Abstract:
In this article, the main problems of the philosophy of the great Kazakh thinker Abai Kunanbaev are considered.
A philosophical analysis of the main problems of the teaching was conducted: the problems of man,
love, knowledge, the problem of faith, freedom and responsibility, the problem of the correlation of
knowledge and wealth. The existential foundations of the philosopher's philosophy are revealed. The idea of
characterizing the worldview of the philosopher as a Sufi one is substantiated. Two types of knowledge are
distinguished: Naqlia as a traditional, known, written knowledge and Ǵaqlia understood as wisdom, philosophical
truth, an open power of understanding the world, which has its own usefulness to benefit humanity.
The idea iaccording to which for the first time in the Kazakh philosophy Abay formulated the concept of a
perfect, a full-fledged mature human (Tolyq adam) is outlined.
