Abstract

According to the popular interpretation of the History of Islamic philosophy, Ibn Sina, along with philosophers such as Shaikh Al-Ishraq and Mulla Sadra, are known as the representatives of the three major philosophical currents of the Islamic world. This article, rather than entering the text of the controversies and philosophical issues concerning Islamic philosophy, from the perspective of metaphilosophy and historiography of philosophy, and for the first time to the approaches of interpretations of philosophy of Ibn Sina according to the categories of Western Contemporary philosophy deals with and explores its central idea and achievement at the same level. We can speak of four types of interpretations of Islamic philosophy and consequently of philosophy of Ibn Sina, namely Henry Corbin (Illumination interpretation), Etienne Gilson (Eurocentric interpretation), Haeri Yazdi (analytical interpretation) and Mohammad Abed aljaberi (ideological interpretation) and analyze and compare These views pay off. In the end, while pointing to the Principles and consequences of each of these interpretations, it will be shown that the studies of Islamic philosophy (especially philosophy of Ibn Sina) in contemporary Iran, if it is with regard to these types approaches, will find its way more self-consciously and of course Concrete issues of contemporary culture will follow.
