Abstract

For a long time, philosophers have considered thinking and contemplative knowledge to be the specific perfection of the human race. What is the relationship between thought or theoretical reflection and Action? What are the opinions of Aristotle and Avicenna on the relationship between theory and practice? Is Avicenna merely a commentator of Aristotle or has he also developed the latter’ s ideas? Has this development been holistic or otherwise? What is the nature of ‘ relative Causality’ of opinion and practice in Aristotle and Avicenna? The relationship between theory and practice can be studied under twofold issues: first, the relationship between theoretical and practical potential in terms of epistemology; then the relationship between knowledge and Action manifested in mysticism, happiness, politics, ethics and prophecies (called practical wisdom). The paper discusses Aristotle's and Avicenna`s views on these issues and then examines the relationship between practical and Theoretical Reason and practical wisdom with a special focus on the concept of ‘ Causality’ .
