Description

Explore the deep philosophical roots of Islamic metaphysics with this Routledge Library Edition. Originally published in 1958, this work investigates the concept of Occasionalism, which is often linked to Malebranche but was developed much earlier by Muslim theologians in the ninth and tenth centuries. This volume examines the specific metaphysics of atoms and accidents used by these early thinkers. It provides a necessary framework for understanding distinctively Islamic concepts, such as fatalism and the surrender of personal endeavor, by viewing them through the lens of an occasionalist worldview. Beyond the development of these ideas, the text analyzes the historical critiques and attacks directed at Occasionalism by prominent figures such as Averroes and St. Thomas Aquinas. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the history of religion, Islamic philosophy, and the intellectual debates that shaped medieval thought.
