Publisher: Arab Network for Research

In this book, the author stresses the need to study human thought as a cohesive unit that relates to each other and calls for rewriting the history of ideas to be attributed to their owners. Three positions and each position includes a number of purposes. Through these comparisons, the author explains many of the relationships between Islamic thought and Western philosophers such as Descartes, Spinoza, Malebranche, Barclay, Locke, Hegel, Kant, and others. In these three positions, the author dealt with issues between knowledge and existence, the principle of sufficient reason, and a comparison between the incoherence of the philosophers and the criticism of pure reason, during which he discussed the ideas of the philosophers of Islamic thought such as Al-Farabi, Al-Biruni, Ibn Sina, Al-Ghazali, and others.
