Metaphysics in IBN Sina

Abstract

O T Ridvan

The starting point of Ibn Sina's Metaphysics is the effort to reconcile the Neo-Platonic principal cause and the Aristotelian purpose cause. At the point of combination of the Aristotelian doctrine, which comes from the Ammonia synthesis and that the soul causes the body in a purposeful way, and the Neo-Platonic doctrine that the soul causes the body in the form of an agent cause, and at the point of what God is and in what way he causes the world, Necessary Being with the distinction of thing and essence emerges from the kalam and Possible existence distinction formed the basis of Ibn Sina.
