Abstract

Although Abu hayyan at-Tawhidi lived in 4th century Basra, which was the center of conflict among different religions, idealogies, and believers, he was a free and independent thinker devoid of religious prejudice. That absence of prejudice may have originated from the impression of his masters thoughts (Solayman al-Mantiqi), his friendship with the Ikwan as- safa, and, in part, his inclination towards asceticism and sufism. But some of his works exceed the bounds of lack of religious prejudice and negligence, and show an adherence to pluralistic religious beliefs. Therefore, any comment on the story of "The Blind Mens Understanding of the Elephant" in al- Moqabasat as a text written by Tawhidi will not be complete without paying attention to his intention, which can be revealed through studying his historical personality. We can finally come to the conclusion that he was not devoid of inclinations towards religious pluralism.
