“…Furthermore, he believed that only human beings have the ability to create civilisations and culture and to inhabit any area in the world, regardless of location. He also stated that human beings can control their own habitat without being ruled by the effects of weather (either hot or cold) (Tufayl, 1972).…”

This paper seeks to examine the thought of philosophers about the influence of the environment on humans' physical, mental and moral habits, as well as how these philosophers used this influence to categorise individuals according to their habitat. As such this research begins with Herodotus and Hippocrates, and briefly discusses Plato, Aristotle, and seven medieval philosophers belonging to Jewish, Christian, and Islamic religions (Al-Kindi, Eriugena, Al-Farabi, Ibn Sina, Ibn Tufail, Averroes, and Moses Maimonides). Also, this study investigates Montesquieu from the seventh century, eight modern thinkers from the 19th through the 21st centuries, determinism (Carl Ritter, Ellen Churchill Semple, and Ellsworth Huntington), geography of possibilism (Vidal de Blacche, Lucian Febwer, and Cari Sauer), bioregionalism (Richard Evanoff), and meteorology (Frederik Nebeker). Lastly, this study concludes that all aforementioned 19th philosophers agreed that the environment influences human behaviour and physical condition.

“…Об ответе Ибн-Рушда на газалийскую критику философии (ед. мута'аххир) из них придерживаются мнения об извечности мира: о том, что он издавна существовал 14 вместе с (ма'а) Богом, будучи причинённым (ма'лю ль ля-Ху) 15 Им, сопровождающим (муса̄вик ̣) Его и не отстающим (гайр мута'ххир) от Него по времени, наподобие сопровождения причинённогопричины, света -солнца; и что предшествование (так ̣аддум) Творца миру, схожее с предшествованием причины причинённому, т.е. предшествование по самости (би-з-за̄т) и рангу (би-р-рутба ̣) 16 , но не по времени (би-з-зама̄н).…”

The article serves as an introduction to the translation of the book «The Incoherence of the Incoherence» (Tahafut at-Tahafut) by the peripatetic philosopher Ibn Rushd (Averroes, 1126–1198), written in response to the work of the theologian-asharite al-Ghazali (1058–1111) «The Incoherence of the Philosophers» (Tahafut al-Falasifa). The paper highlights the motives of al-Ghazali’s attack on Muslim peripatetism (Falsafa) and its infl uence on the fate of this school in the Muslim world. The research describes the basic understanding of the Falsafa picture of the world that comes as a framework for the discussions unfolding the fi rst of the three main points of al-Ghazali’s criticism, which is the thesis of the world eternity. The connection between Ibn Rushd’s book and his earlier theological and polemical treatises as «On the Correlation between Philosophy and Religion» and «On the Methods of Proof for the Principles of Creed» is shown.

“…Freud in the 19 th century went for the diagnostic reading of Sophocles' century's old play Oedipus Rex and the result was the psychoanalytic theory that is vehemently used today in different disciplines of knowledge. Ibne Tufayl, a Muslim philosopher of Muslim Spain, gave the concept of two types of truths: higher truth and lower truth of life; the former was for the sulphite and the latter was for the bromides of the society (Tufayl, 2015). Henrik Ibsen's play The Wild Duck (1900) borrows the structures of higher and lower truths from Ibne Tufayl.…”
