In the works of scientists around the world, there are numerous theories on the issue of God, which focus on different aspects of it. Carl Gustav Jung is a psychologist who has addressed this issue in his research and has a specific perspective that is similar to the theory of nature in Islam in some ways. He considers God to be an archetype hidden in the collective unconscious of man. The difference in translation and different interpretations of his phrases have caused the theory to be ambiguous and its position as a defender of religious components to be unknown.
