In a philosophical idiom that attempts to be intelligible to the reader who is not traditionally trained this study outlines various dimensions of traditional Islamic correspondence theories of truth. It particularly argues that purely intelligible abstract concepts universal natures and general principles objectively apply to the world against schools of thought that contend that they are subjectively imposed. It is only by discerning the congruity or discordance of these fundamental instruments of general metaphysics with forms of extramental reality that we are able to avoid the implication that their lack of sensible referents implies our knowledge of the world which is contingent upon the employment of these instruments must be ultimately subjective.
