Islamic civilization ever got a doctor in the medical fields known as Rhazes to the West, he was labelled “al-mulḥid” due to his controversial thoughts on prophetic concepts. The doctor was born in Al-Rayy on 250 H/864 AD; he, as the writer of “al-Ḥāwī Fī al-Ṭibb” did not feel content with the treatment of human disease that relied on techniques or certain methods of treatment alone, yet it was to reach a sense of adequacy. He believed that medication treatments required morals in which a doctor should attentively mind a patient. Therefore, Al-Rāzī decided to do such a noble thing by composing a conscientious book entitled “Akhlāq al-Ṭabīb” as a treatise for his students. This study was conducted through qualitative research. This study aims to briefly dissect the primal foundation of al-Rāzī's thought, which produced the moral concept of doctors in an era that was arrantly early, long before the existence of medical ethics. This study reveals that within the essences of al-Rāzī himself were the theocentric paradigm and the anthropocentric paradigm, and those were accumulated at once; ergo, the epistemological roots of al-Rāzī's thought led to religion, science, and philosophy. Through a good elaboration of science, philosophy, and religion in the concept of tawakkul and good character towards poor people who suffered from diseases, al-Rāzī had laid some of the moral basics of doctors, which were not applied to the whole, far ahead of existing legal norms in the current era, which can be explored in his book.
