Analisis Kritik Filsafat:Kritik Tahafut Al- Tahafut terhadap TahafutAl-Falasifah
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the philosophical critique presented by Ibn Rushd in his work Tahafut al-Tahafut against Tahafut al-Falasifah by Al-Ghazali. The research examines the philosophical views of these two prominent Islamic thinkers in the history of Islamic thought, particularly in the debate between philosophy and theology. The main focus is to understand how Ibn Rushd deconstructs Al-Ghazali's arguments against philosophy and evaluates the relevance of this critique in the context of contemporary Islamic thought. The method used in this study is critical textual analysis with a historical-philosophical approach. Primary data, including the texts of Tahafut al-Tahafut and Tahafut al-Falasifah, were deeply analyzed by examining the structure of arguments, historical context, and their philosophical implications. Secondary data from classical and modern scholars' literature were utilized to support the analysis. The results indicate that Ibn Rushd successfully offers a defense of philosophy through logical arguments grounded in the consistency of philosophical methodology and rational thought. His critique of Al-Ghazali not only highlights the epistemological weaknesses of theological arguments but also emphasizes the importance of harmony between revelation and reason. In conclusion, Tahafut al-Tahafut stands as a significant milestone in the history of Islamic philosophy, demonstrating efforts to integrate religious traditions with rational thought, which remains relevant in addressing modern intellectual challenges.
