The Muslim Council of Elders’ booth at the Cairo International Book Fair 2024 presents the book “Islamic Philosophy in Al Maghreb (A Critical Study)” by Dr. Imad Kahafaji, a distinguished scholar of Al-Azhar. The book delves into the intellectual movement in Al-Andalus and the factors that led to the transfer and flourishing of philosophy in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the introduction to the book, the author explains that it specifically addresses one stream of philosophical thought in Islam, referring to the philosophical trend known as Al-Masha’i in Islamic thought. He emphasizes that the discussion is limited to the Andalusian region (present-day Spain and Portugal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The book comprises three sections; firstly, Al-Ghazali’s Journey with the Masha’i Trend in Islamic Thought in the East, covering elements such as Al-Ghazali’s pursuit of certain knowledge, his exploration of means of knowledge, his evaluation of intellectual trends in his era, and his criticism of philosophy and philosophers. The second section discusses the intellectual movement in Al-Andalus, exploring the factors that led to the transfer and flourishing of philosophy in the region. The third and final section analyzes the philosophical movement in Al-Andalus, detailing its characteristics and notable figures. The author thoroughly examines the philosopher Ibn Bajjah from Saragossa, shedding light on Ibn Bajjah’s culture, scholarly status, philosophical doctrine, theory of knowledge, and contributions to ethical discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
