The information in this article has been collected using a library method and analyzed by using a rational method in such a way that firstly, the quiddity of sensual knowledge and the process of its emergence in the field of body and soul are discussed, then the challenges arising from the issue of perceptual illusion have been explained, and then the way Muslim sages face the issue of perceptual illusion and its challenges are discussed. It has been concluded by analyzing the views of Muslim sages that the issues of the sages’ confrontation regarding perceptual illusion are: 1- Non-attribution of perceptual perception to mistake (Arabic: خطأ, khaṭā) and correctness (Arabic: صواب, ṣawāb, right) 2- The effect of the faculty of estimation and estimated on perceptual illusion 3- Discovery and correction of perceptual illusion through intellectual faculty. It is clear according to the author by analyzing and separating the epistemological and ontological aspects of perceptual perceptions that perceptual perceptions can be true and false in the true sense and their epistemological validity is based on thought and reasoning; hence perceptual perceptions and sensible propositions are removed from the axioms and certainties.
