ABSTRACT
In the beginning of his compelling book, Jame al-hikmatayn, the eleventh-century Muslim philosopher, writer, poet and preacher, Nasir Khusraw, states:
Since the reason for writing this book was to uncover religious and philosophical dilemmas I named this book Jame al-hikmatayn (Synthesis of the Two Wisdoms). In it, I have spoken with the wise men of religion bringing proofs from the book of God [Qur’an] and the tradition of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and with the wise men of philosophy and logic bringing rational evidence.
(Khusraw, 2003b: 21)
