%X Whether God has a knowledge is a controversial issue both philosophy and theology. Does God have a knowledge? If He has, does He know the particulars? When we assume that God knows particulars, is there any change in God¡¯s essence? In the theistic tradition, it is accepted that God is wholly perfect, omniscience, omnipotent and wholly good. Therefore, it is not possible to say that there is a change in God. Because changing is a kind of imperfection. On God¡¯s knowledge, another controversial issue is whether God knows particulars or not. Most of theist thinkers argued that God is wholly perfect; because of perfectness, He must have perfect attributes. Knowing and goodness are a kind of perfect attributes. Ignoring and evil are a kind of imperfectness. If God is perfect being, He should have the perfect attributes and must know the particulars. For me in this subject, there are some similarities between al-Ghaz¨¡l¨© and Maimonides. In this study I took into consideration the idea of al-Ghaz¨¡l¨© and Maimonides on this subject. Based on Griffel and Stroumsa¡¯s argument, I tried to show similarity between al-Ghaz¨¡l¨© and Maimonides on God¡¯s knowledge
