Ibn Sina - Master of All Sciences (Philosophy)
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 06. 2024
- Ibn Sina, otherwise known in the West as "Avicenna", was an intellectual titan of the Islamic Golden Age. Deriving the cosmological argument for the existence of God, and articulating a systemic proof for human consciousness, Ibn Sina's impact on Islamic philosophy and metaphysics cannot be understated.
Hailing from Afshona in modern day Uzbekistan, Ibn Sina would take heavy inspiration from another local central Asian philosopher, Al-Farabi, motivating his study of the philosophical sciences. As well as an astute thinker, Ibn Sina was talented in practical matters as well, often seen treating patients as a physician - for which he is also remembered.
A true polymath and scientific genius, Ibn Sina would earn the title as the Master of All Sciences for his broad contributions to scientific disciplines, completing over 400 highly influential works. This is the fourth video in the Oases of Wisdom series on Islamic Philosophers.
This is part four of our series on Islamic philosophy.

When you said he was persian, I was so enraged because Afshana is in Uzbekistan. I am from Uzbekistan and we were taught that he was Turk like us, not Persian from Iran. I opened comment section to write my long hate speech but I stopped and researched myself. And now I know he was indeed persian. I guess I can't rely on the government textbooks. Anyway, thanks for the video
Very nice video.
Please continue the series with following Suhrawardi , Ibn Arabī , Ibn Rushd , Mulla sadra and other Islamic philosophers .
We plan to include many more philosophers (including those on your list) in the series.
@الأزدي he is from khorasan before khorasan was big country 120 years ago Russia and English make part part for example Tajikistan Uzbekistan Turkmenistan Afghanistan blochastan of Iran the ibn sina house in north of Afghanistan the city name is mazar Sharif

Abu Ali Sina was a Persian-speaking scientist... and another point is that great Iranian and Persian-speaking scientists and poets have nothing to do with Islam.

Hello I love your work! Would appreciate a video about Ibn Arabi!
i really liked this video! very informative. You should do a video on Al-Biruni next time
Amazing ! He is truly an inspiration . Ibn Sina
beautifully explained
🇮🇷❤ Sina or Poor Sina (in Persian), is the most famous Iranian scientist in the world. his book called 《Ghanoon》, in the field of medicine was taught in universities around the world until the 19th century. In the West, it is known as AVICENNE. There are many hospitals in the world or department in the faculties of medicine in the world in his name. In Iran, he is a national pride. His tomb is in the city of Hamedan in northwestern Iran.
He was pers𝜖cuted und𝜀r Islam:
_"Like his predecessor AI-Kindi, Ibn Sina was a fiercely independent-minded philosopher who insisted on the primacy of reason, although he had disputed the Mu'tazilites on various technical matters. For a time he was vizier to the emir of Hamad an. Here he got into a religious argument with strict believers of the army, and they soon called for his ex𝜀cution. Soldiers came to his house ,but, not finding him, plund𝜀red it and then called on the emir to b𝜀head him. Ibn Sina was warned in time and hid at the house of his friend Abu Said Dafdaq, where he worked on his masterpiece AI-Qanun. Ibn Sina fled p𝜀rsecution and the wrath of rulers several times. With his books banned, and powerful enemies plotting against him, his friends counselled moderation. To this he replied: 'I prefer a short life with width to a narrow one with length,' and continued his work undaunted."_
- Hoodbhoy, Pervez , _Islam and Science_ (Chpt 10).

With his books banned, and powerful enemies plotting against him, his friends counselled moderation. To this he replied: 'I prefer a short life with width to a narrow one with length,' and continued his work undaunted. Ibn Sina's attempted synthesis of religious beliefs with science and logic repeatedly earned him wrath of the ulema."

The point: Islamic orthodoxy didn't help but worked against learning.
@@endpc5166 "The point: Islamic orthodoxy didn't help but worked against learning." not really, ignorance did, and not all orthodox people are ignorant and some are extremely intellectual.
To be orthodox one has to follow the Words in the Quran to the T or as much as they sincerely can and that would mean that they would have to learn about different things and use kalam.
So if it didn't help, how did the ummah get to that point of "golden age"? (by the way, I think they never left it, non-Islamic external sources are the main reason we don't see it. For example, the US and allied forces' foreign policy is built to destroy this ummah just like they did with their own)
It's like saying the Muslims before the "golden age" weren't orthodox (if your using the word orthodox as it is defined in dictionaries, they were. Were the Sahaba orthodox by definition?) and that orthodoxy is some sort of phenomenon.
This thought is just a classic case of attributing a minority's actions or ideas to the majority because this is what is highlighted the most throughout history.
Because it's so outrageous people just can't stop talking about it that everything else gets lost in time or hidden in the "zeitgeist".
Orthodoxy or wanting to follow your religion to an extreme doesn't have to be a bad thing if done appropriately, obviously.
@@ProLookout But the orthodoxy of the likes of very influential AI-Ghazli hindered greatly scientific learning. He denied physical causality, Allah did everything, and that belief makes modern science, esp physics, impossible. Muslims had to wait for centuries for "infidel" scientists to set them on the right path. Now Muslim apologists struggle to reinterpret the unscientific verses of the Qur'an in the light of the new modern science. This is why I say the Qur'an could not have come from an all-knowing God. Must go elsewhere for Truth.

He was from Iran and the Middle East
@Arkam Knight why ur trying reverse the truth, i mean the fact that he was birn in uzbekistan, bukhara

Thanks.
good stuff
Ibn Sina was born in 980 in Afshana near Bukhara (now Uzbekistan, then Persia) as the son of an Ismaili scholar from Balkh (now Afghanistan) and died in Hamadan, then Persia (now Iran), at the court of the Persian Buyids.
He is originally from (Balkh) now Balkh province Afghanistan 🇦🇫
Iranians have enjoyed a long cultural continuity, something that distinguishes them from other Middle Eastern neighbors. Avicenna's presence in Iranian landmarks not only serves as a reminder of his remarkable achievements but also fosters a sense of national pride among Persians
He was from Afghanistan, stop calling everyone iranian, wth is wrong with you guys.
ماشاءاللّٰہ
Thanks
Great
Ibn sina ,he is our generation
Very good
Could you please share the script of this video? I need it to translate the content in different language for a friend.

what a prodigy
He was from balkh in Afghanistan
He was Persian and Afghanistan was part of Iran used to be called khorasan
Good
We need a video on Al-Ma'arri, the medieval islamic version of Schopenhauer! Or maybe Schopenhauer was just the 19th centruy German version of Al-Ma'arri? 🤔
The use of American Gothic is a bit creepy in the context of the video. The subjects of the painting are father and daughter...
Yikes! Had no idea. We cycle through about ~200 paintings and images per video to create the collages, so much of it is bound to be out of context. Thanks for pointing this out though, we should defo be more cautious in the future.” - Wikipedia, American Gothic
I also found an article online claiming Wood’s mother was chosen to pose for the painting but declined and that a popular caption for the painting is “An Iowan with his wife”. In pop culture satires of the painting also seem to depict husband and wife which probably explained my subconscious attraction to use it for such.
Your comment inspired me to do some more research and the rabbit hole goes deeper. This quote is from the Wikipedia article for American gothic:
“In 2005, art historian Sue Taylor suggested that the figures in the portrait may actually represent Wood's parents. She claimed that due to Wood's father passing away when Wood was only 10 years old, Wood did not develop a close relationship with him but noted that he did spend the rest of his life very closely attached to his mother. She theorizes that Wood may have developed an Oedipus complex and subconsciously expressed that in the painting. Taylor cites the lack of warmth between the two figures as well as Wood's classification of them as “father and daughter” was a way for Wood to remove any sexual connotation so that Wood wouldn't have to face his own fears and insecurities. Taylor also points out similarities between other portraits of Wood's mother and the woman in American Gothic, including the brooch that she wears.”

He's not from Iran. His mom was from Bukhara and his dad from Balkh.
@@DigoronKavkaz bukhara and balkh both cities of The Samanid Persian Empire. His mother was from Bactria, an ancient Iranian region.
@@pooya4434 Both his parents are from cities that belonged to Bactria and Sogdiana. I don't know why Persians try to claim everything as their own. It's so annoying.
@@DigoronKavkaz and do you know what is Bactria right? An ancient Iranian region.
Persian is just the name for all Iranic people in the West.
And for fu*ck sake he was speaking Persian what is wrong with you...
He even tried and used some Persian equivalents in his books in order to revive the language after getting heavily Arabised.
Why would you get offended by the fact? Just because a lot of these scholars are Persian, doesn't mean it's a lie and you should claim it for yourself.
No mention that he is persian but in your alkindi video you mentioned his tribe
🇧🇩🤲 Alhumdulillah
Rabbi-jidni-ilma..
Middle eastern world and western world evolved from each other.
That impressive age of learning occurred under very tolerant caliphs in spite of orthodox Islam, not because of it, and it finally died due to persecution by orthodox Muslims. Ibn Sina ws an example. "Ibn Sina acquired a reputation for heresy by the orthodox both in his own time as well as in later centuries. The most influential of conservative theologians, Imam AI-Ghazzali, declared him to be an unbeliever." - _Islam And Science_ by Prof. Pervez Hoodbhoy.
Thats the beauty of religion and Gods word! Islam is a philosophical religion in its nature. He tells us he created us to worship and think. He orders us to think, so, its only natural that these philosophers challenged themselves, each other, and tended to disagree. In my opinion, those tolerant caliphs are the essence of Islam. Abu Bakr el Razi was also called a heretic for his disbelief in the idea of prophecy, yet he proclaimed himself as a muslim. People dont get to decide if your beliefs are in line with islam or not, you get to decide that.
@@mariahanano8357 N𝜊, the Qur'an essentially says it created man to subm𝜄t to Allah's will, and the Qur'an was hardly conducive to free intellectual inquiry that modern science demands, which is why modern science developed in the West, not under Islam's oppressive rule that ended that Golden Age.

A major misconception today is that all Persians have converted to shi’ism, which absolutely shameful and false. After the creation of modern Iran the term Persian has been hijacked by Iran and all Eastern Persians were named TAJIKS. Which effectively would make all scholars of Khorasan Tajiks despite being historically identified as Persians.
Tajiks of Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tashkurghan (uyghur),… are all mainly Sunnis.
Also ibn Sina is originally from Balkh (Afghanistan) as his name suggests:
Abu Ali al-Ḥusayn bin Abdullah ibn al-Hasan bin Ali bin Sina AL-BALKHI al-Bukhari
In Khorasan region specially Iran and Afghanistan we call him Abu Ali Sina Balkhi.
Quantum mechanics and string theory is speaking the language of Ibn Sina

do u remember my name :O
Ibn Suna was mentioned in Dante’s inferno? No way!
Ibn Sina*
Yes way
💚💚💚
❤️
What does it mean "universe was created out of time" ?
Great question! So, it means that Ibn Sina believed that there was no such thing as time without the universe because if there was time, it would limit God. So, he deduced the universe *always* had existed (it did not begin to exist) but was still dependent on God.
Thank you 💟
👏
He was a Tajik ❤
I heard a legend that he had a sweet tooth despite living a healthy lifestyle :)
A bit late but can you share the sources and links from which you got the information

What do you mean?
"Cogito, ergo sum" has nothing to do with what Ibn Sina was talking about. Also, Plato wrote "But if life itself is good and pleasant…and if one who sees is conscious that he sees, one who hears that he hears, one who walks that he walks and similarly for all the other human activities there is a faculty that is conscious of their exercise, so that whenever we perceive, we are conscious that we perceive, and whenever we think, we are conscious that we think, and to be conscious that we are perceiving or thinking is to be conscious that we exist..."
I would respectfully challenge the notion that “Cogito, ergo sum” has nothing to do with Ibn Sina’s “Floating Man” thought experiment.
Both ideas allude to an argument for an immaterial soul (mind-body dualism) via a type of cognitive self identification or (for Ibn Sina) in the Illuminationist school of thought “knowledge by presence”.
Indeed, it’s common in the literature about Ibn Sina (and the floating man thought experiment) for Descartes’ work to be referenced due to the underlying similarities in the structure of their argument.
Check out the paper “Avicenna's 'Flying Man' Argument and Descartes Cogito Ergo Sum: a Comparison” for a comparative report on the two ideas.
To your latter point, you are definitely correct in pointing out that past writers and philosophers have understood and implied the existence of the soul. Indeed, in the last two video of ours we have explored as much. What Ibn Sina was a pioneer in, however, was creating a thought experiment and systematic rational argument for the existence of the soul, namely the “Floating Man” thought experiment. Importantly, it’s the structure of the thought experiment that matters here.
@@OasesOfWisdom Plato and René are talking about consciousness or sentience. Not immortal souls in this scenario. Altough Plato did also write about that subject.
