"This study of Sayf al-Dīn al-Āmidī's (d. 631/1233) teachings on creation offers
close analysis of all of his extant works of falsafa and kalām. Some of these were
not known to previous scholars, yet they bear witness to key facets of the interaction
between the historically inimical traditions of Hellenic philosophy and rational theology
at this important intellectual moment. Al-Āmidīis seen to grapple with the encounter
of two paradigms for the discussion of creation. On the one hand, Ibn Sīnā's metaphysical
concept of necessity of existence is the basis of his doctrine of the world's pre-eternal
emanation. On the other, for the mutakallimūn, the physical theory of atomism bolsters
the view that God created the world from nothing. This study is of interest to scholars
of Ibn Sīnā and Ash'arism alike, as it advances our understanding of the ongoing
tradition of rational theology in the Islamic world, long past Abū Ḥāmid al-Ghazālī's
(d. 505/1111) famous attack on the philosophers"
