The Incoherence of the Philosophers was not directed against the Mutzlities whose by the 11th century, when the book was written, was already in recession. The book is mainly directed against Islamic neoplatonism. --Vonaurum 21:18, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

can i ask why 'the incoherence of the incoherence' by Ibn Rushd redirects to this page, they arent the same text, 'the incoherence of the incoherence was a reply to the incoherence of the philosophers and should have its own page.

[edit] When was this book written?

Need a date in here someplace. 66.32.141.79 04:11, 16 September 2007 (UTC)


It is interesting to compare the impact of Saint Augustin to Western Europe to that of Al Ghazali in Islam. It is ironic that the Islamic philosophers rescued the damaged done in the West by St. Augustin thoughts, through Maimonides/Saint Thomas/Scholasticism/Reform/Enlightment while Islam still dwells in the 12th century disputations.
