Abstract
This article examines the relationship between reason and faith, as well as science and religion, with a particular focus on the influence of neoplatonism in the contemporary discourse. Exploring medieval Islamic philosophy and thinkers such as Al-Farabi, Avicenna, and Averroes, who incorporated neoplatonic teachings into their works, the study highlights the quest for reconciliation between reason and faith. It argues that the medieval Islamic discussion anticipated the current debate on the relationship between science and religion, emphasizing the complementary and enriching nature of these fields. The article emphasizes the importance of this integrative dialogue for a broader understanding of the relationship between reason and faith, science and religion.
