PHRAGMENT: PHilosophical Reflections on A Grounded Muslim presENT
Religion & Spirituality:Islam
This is the second episode of our four-part series on the 17th discussion of the Incoherence of the Philosophers. Here we dive further into the debate between Ghazali, the 'falasifa,' and Ibn Rushd over miracles and natural causality. This takes us through a number of interesting issues, including the possibility and nature of divine will, the problem of induction and the possibility of knowledge of future contingencies, and the very nature of knowledge itself. Finally we examine Ghazali's explanation of how miracles, and the pervasiveness of God's power, is compatible with natural order.
