Ibn Rushd the philosopher
In this book, we approach a brilliant mind that combined the depth of a philosopher with the precision of a jurist. He is Ibn Rushd, the philosopher of Cordoba, who raised the banner of reason and free thought in the face of his opponents and strove to reconcile philosophy and Islamic law. He lived in Andalusia in the sixth century AH, leaving an indelible mark on both Arab and Western thought, so much so that his name became a fixture in global philosophical circles. The author covers his biography, from his upbringing in a distinguished scholarly family, through his contributions to criticizing Al-Ghazali in his book "The Incoherence of the Incoherence," to his attempts to correct the ideas of great philosophers such as Ibn Sina and Al-Farabi. This book takes you on a profound intellectual journey that reveals how Ibn Rushd formulated a theory of knowledge and how he defended reason, becoming one of the major bridges between Islamic civilization and European thought.
