Is Islamic Philosophy Identical with Greek Philosophy?
Abstract
In this paper the writer has first tried to explore the different views in Islamic philosophy, and then propogate the claim that there exists an invaluable and systematic reality called Islamic philosophy, which began by Kindi, Farabi, and Ibn-Sina, was further developed by Shaykh Ishraq and Mulla Sadra, and still continues to exist.Islamic philosophy is a historical reality, one which, like other existing schools of philosophy; has been influenced by Greek philosophy in many respects; however, it has posed some novel questions and, at the same time, suggested a series of innovative answers to the existing problems.
