إخوان الصفا و خلان الوفا : دراسة في اتجاهم الفكري

الملخص EN

The Arab heritage system is a fertile field worthy of research and study, and the Arab-Islamic civilization paid attention to thought because it is a form of social awareness, and over time, issues and cases related to Islamic thought changed.

Among the most prominent influencers in Islamic thought, Ikhwan Al-Safa and Khallan Al-Wafa, contributed especially in the field of developing Islamic thought.

In this research, we try to answer the following question: What is the intellectual trend of the Ikhwan al-Safa'? Are they a group of philosophers belonging to the Shiites and taking the Twelver Imami Shiite thought in general, or are they from the Ismaili Shiites in particular? Or are they Alawites? Or from the late Mu'tazila? Or from the Qarmatians? This research is a scientific attempt to understand the intellectual trend of the Ikhwan al-Safa and Khallan al-Wafa, because their experience takes a striking line, and it is necessary to reconcile with him by studying the sources and references that documented the intellectual trends of the Ikhwan al-Safa'.

The study concluded that there is a difference between historians, researchers and scholars, whether they are Orientalists or Ar, in determining the intellectual direction of the Ikhwan al-Safa, who presented contributions that changed many issues and intellectual trends.
