Kutb Al- Dīn Al-Razi’s Life, Works And Philosophical Opions

By admin

In this dissertation, I examined the life, instroctors, and works of Ḳuṭb al- Dīn al-Razi and his views regarding existence, ̒illa (causes), and Ishārat philosophy (allusive / directive philosophy). This thesis contains an introduction, two chapters and a conclusion chapter.
In the introduction, Ḳuṭb al- Dīn al-Razi’s life, his school of thought, his works and the political circumstances of his era were dealt with.
I examined Ḳuṭb al- Dīn al-Razi’s postion about the existence and the causes of existence from a comparative perspective with Avicenna (d. 428/1037), Fakhr al-Dīn Rāzī (d. 607/1210), and, Naṣīr al- Dīn al-Ṭūsī’s (d. 672/1274) views in the first chapter.
In the first part of the second chapter, I tried to exhibit the proofs of the existence of wād̲j̲ib al-wud̲j̲ūd (the only being whose essence is to exist or necessary being); and in the second part I tried to demonstrate Ḳuṭb al- Dīn al-Razi’s position about the unity of wād̲j̲ib al-wud̲j̲ūd.
In the conclusion, I pointed out to the original views demonstrated by Ḳuṭb al- Dīn al-Razi, who was a philosopher in the same path as Avicenna.
