It’s considered to be an epitome of “The Cure” and it does not consist of the normal arguments and debates or anything to be considered proofread, professional works; it was more so Avicenna’s reflections of his thoughts, logic, and metaphysical issues. “According to Gutas it was written in Isfahan in the early 1030s; according to Michot, it dates from an earlier period in Hamadan and possibly Rayy. A further work entitled al-Insaf (The Judgement) which purports to represent a philosophical position that is radical and transcends AristotelianisingAristotle’s Neoplatonism is unfortunately not extant, and debates about its contents are rather like the arguments that one encounters concerning Plato’s esoteric or unwritten doctrines. One further work that has inspired much debate is The Easterners (al-Mashriqiyun) or The Eastern Philosophy (al-Hikma al-Mashriqiya) which he wrote at the end of the 1020s and is mostly lost” (Rizvi 2000).]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803930 Avicenna in the Psychology Field kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803931 Ibn Sina is a very important philosopher in not only the Middle East, but in the psychology field as well. Avicenna had many works that impacted his career in his lifetime and thereafter. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803931 Major Works 3 kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803932 The final one he wrote was called “Al-insaf” which means “the judgement.” Specifically, “that is radical and transcends Aristotelianising Aristotle’s Neoplatonism is unfortunately not extant, and debates about its contents are rather like the arguments that one encounters concerning Plato’s esoteric or unwritten doctrines” (2000). There is also another work written by Avicenna of the encyclopedia’s, however, they’re considered to be lost and have not been recovered. It was called “Al-Mashriqiyun” which means “The Easterners.” ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803932 Medicine kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803933 “The Pulse,” which was one of Avicenna’s famous works in medicine, “is still one of the most important diagnostic clues in modern medicine. Feeling and interpreting the pulse requires great skill. Pulse-taking was a skillful bedside technique in Greco-Islamic medicine and the Middle Ages” (2013). Because of pulse taking, this has helped physicians in making diagnosis. To take vitals, and is used in today’s word, thousands of years later. Low or high pulse or no pulse have different meanings and this has helped future doctors examine more closely what they need to do with their patients based on pulse checking.]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803933 Death kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803936 Avicenna died in June of 1037, in the month of Ramadan; which is considered to be the best time to die as a Muslim. It’s considered to be honorable and if a Muslim were going to die, the month of Ramadan is the holiest time, and the best time to die, even thought that may sound a bit barbaric; it's meant as someone who dies during this month goes straight to Jannah (Heaven). Avicenna died from Colic.]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803936 Major Works kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803937 One of his major works is called “The Cure.” It’s very well-known because it was considered to be controversial in the time of which he lived. “The Cure” was one of the three encyclopedias he had written, in which included topics of: math, natural sciences, theology, logic, and metaphysics.]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803937 World Famous kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803938 Ibn Sina has a grave impact on today’s psychology. According to Moosavi, Avicenna has about 750 articles and books written about him in many different European languages (2009). It seems as though Ibn Sina has both a huge impact on psychology and medicine. Avicenna has clearly made a huge impact on the history of medicine and psychology. He is not only a huge public figure amongst the Middle East, in which he originated, and not only Europe, but the entire world. Ibn Sina has truly made a mark and a name for thousands of years and has changed history in medicine and psychology. His complexity of logics and his intelligence in medicine has proven to be tremendously impactful and inspiring. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803938 Logic kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803939 Avicenna created sections of propositions. These are propositions of logic in which predict an individual’s logic or ways of getting to the truth. Of these, they included: categorical, modal, and hypothetical. Each of which contain contents in which help understand logic. Sort of like the common school subject, English. For example, to create a compound sentence, you would need at least two or more independent clauses; of which help make up a compound sentence. You cannot have a compound sentence with only one independent clause. Therefore, categorical propositions are predictive and consist of two qualifiers; a subject and a predicate. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803939 Logic Part 2 (Because long paragraphs are...BORING!) kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803941 Avicenna uses AEIO to explain relations of truth conditions. Contradiction is valid when its components are true-false in all matters (A/O and E/I). Contrariety is valid when its components are false and false in the possibility of true and false in the necessary and impossible matters (A/E). Subcontrariety is valid when its components are true and true in the possibility of true and false in the impossible and necessary matters (I/O). Sub alternation is valid when its components are false and true in the possibility, true and true or false and false in the two matters (A/I and E/O). Avicenna’s logic, or formula for understanding or predicting logic was one of the major accomplishments and one of the things he is most known for. Not only in the Middle East, but in historical psychology. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803941 Conclusion kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803942 Avicenna most likely has something to do with anything you've done in your life. Like checking your pulse, being a Muslim (if you are one), and literally THINKING!

He then left again ‘through necessity’ in 1012 for Jurjan in Khurasan to the south in search no doubt for a patron. There he first met his disciple and scribe Juzjani. After a year, he entered Buyid service as a physician, first with Majd al-Dawla in Rayy and then in 1015 in Hamadan where he became vizier of Shams al-Dawla.” He did not marry nor have any children during his lifetime. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803944 Childhood kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803945 Avicenna’s father was a local Samanid governer. After moving to Bukhara at such a young age, this became the place in which Avicenna’s childhood occurred. As a child, he studied Hanafi jurisprudence, which is Islamic studies as well as medicine with his teachers. This provided Avicenna with training by the physicians at Samanid Court in Philosophical self-education. By only age 18, Avicenna mastered all sciences and then became a physician at Samanid Court of Nuh ibn Mansur. Avicenna was given administrative post after his father died. ]]> 2019-12-17 00:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803945 Avicenna (Ibn Sina) kayladalmekhlafi https://padlet.com/kayladalmekhlafi/b22ad3ysdgbu/wish/424803946 Abu ‘Ali al-Husayn ibn Sina was born in 980 and died in 1037.
