Ahmad was trained in the tradition of analytic philosophy.

In ''epistemology'' he is inclined towards rationalism but he does not ignore the limitations of reason following al-Ghazali. He asserts the primacy of faith to gain the knowledge of something. He vindicates the placement of the foundation of modern Muslim philosophy on al-Ghazali's thought rather than on Ibn-Rushd's. Moreover, he has made great contributions in philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion, moral philosophy and Islamic philosophy. He also given the (EXPLORING ISLAMIC THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE )〔http://www.tanzeem.us/IONA/Files/QH_Absar_Ahmad.htm Ref: Given by M. Yasir〕
