The principle of causality is considered one of the most important philosophical and
scientific principles that played a seminal role in developing scientific and epistemic
research. This started with the commencement of philosophical thought. Sinc
e then the
early philosophers attempted to look for the first causes that formed the universe and the
real reasons that led to the phenomena and incidents happeningin it , Hence, the principle
of causality helped to present a general comprehensive viewpoint about the universe. This
viewpoint says that nature always undergoes fixed rules, phenomena becomes regular
according to a certain system and that the hierarchy of these phenomena is linked with
systems that have laws and certain causal liaisons .
With the advancement of science and knowledge, it has become clear to scientists
and thinkers that mind does not conclude laws save through a number of principles, one of
which is the principle of causality. Thus, scientific experiment shows that phenomena are
related to each other as the causesare related to the effects. This is explained through the
principle of causality by which it is possible to derive conclusions of the general laws that
rule the relationships between correlated phenomena , As a result of the causal theory,
many philosophical and scientific concepts that are strongly related to the principle of
causality emerged. Such concepts were that of necessity, inevitability and indeterminism
which in its turn led to the emergence of many philosophical doctrines and scientific
movements that contributed greatly to the scientific and epistemic sphere through the
theories and problematic questions they posed and probed.
