1. In facing the external world, human being acts according to aesthetic values. In fact aesthetic values motivate him to see the world and to pay attention to its subjects. The reason that man studies societies is that the apparent world determines the regulations of aesthetic aspects of our society and culture.
2. Without aestheticism, man could not see or sense anything, in other words without preferred aesthetics, seeing and hearing and touching and smelling and tasting cannot be felt, because they are obeying the order of brain and the brain can order of feeling only by aestheticism.
3. The German had noticed to this point in their psychological school. According to them, things are seen by man in its totality at first and then he notice to the details of them: this is named as Gestalt. Gestalt is not possible unless we accept that the first thing man feels when facing things is their aesthetics which introduce the things in a totality, and then will open the way to details or epistemology.
4. Gestalt has also be created in the school of romanticism which is the basic school of the German. For romanticism feeling is basic rather than wisdom, intuition is basic rather than reasoning, tradition is basic rather than modernism, location and geography are basic rather than placeless, power of imagination is basic rather than reality. These are all aesthetic coordinates. Thus, romanticism gives preference to aestheticism rather than epistemology.
5. Mysticism also gives preference to aestheticism rather than epistemology, since the main subject of mysticism is God and God is beautiful and likes beauty. On the other hand, in the stage that he is certain to the existence of God, he sees everything God. So he sees beauty before the things themselves. Valayat means just that the men understand this divine aestheticism.
6. Men can get high aestheticism due to faith and then they won't see anything ugly and will believe that everything sourced from the friend is good.
7. Since aestheticism is preferred to epistemology, art is the most basic cognitive science of man. The sciences of men on the earth began from art.
8. Aestheticism is an intuitive task. Aestheticism is a knowledge by presence which is preferred to the getting and sensitive science.
9. Faith enhances intuitive science.
10. The regulation of Quran is based on just this formula: Preference of aestheticism to epistemology.
