چکیده

مطالعات متنوعی دربارهٔ ماهیت فلسفه اسلامی از سوی متفکران مختلف صورت گرفته است. این مطالعات، بیشتر متأثر از رویکردهای مسلط در پژوهش‌های مربوط به اندیشهٔ اسلامی بوده‌اند. بااین‌حال، در کنار این نگرش‌ها که در طول تاریخ پژوهش دربارهٔ فلسفهٔ اسلامی شکل گرفته‌اند، رویکردها و قرائت‌های جدیدی نیز مورد توجه قرار گرفته است. نویسندگان این پژوهش می‌کوشند با نقد رویکردهای پیشین، نگرشی مبتنی بر «فلسفه به‌مثابهٔ روش زندگی» را برای خوانش متون فلسفی صورت‌بندی و تبیین کند. ازاین‌رو، پس از ارائهٔ شرحی از مفهوم فلسفه به‌مثابه روش زندگی و بررسی تلقی فیلسوفان اسلامی از فلسفه، رسائل اخوان‌الصفا مطالعه خواهد شد. اخوان‌الصفا در رسائل خود، با ارائه نظامی فلسفی و نسبتاً منسجم، تبیینی از گفتار فلسفی عرضه می‌کنند که روش زندگی توحیدی آنان را بازتاب می‌دهد. به نظر می‌رسد تلقی اخوان‌الصفا از فلسفه در جهان اسلام، بر نوعی نظام فکری کل‌نگر استوار است که غایت نهایی آن، دستیابی نفس به سعادت و رستگاری است.

چکیده [English]

Many scholars have so far addressed the nature of Islamic philosophy, each of which has been influenced by the dominant approaches in the field of Islamic thought studies. However, alongside these a priori intellectual movements, new approaches to Islamic philosophy have also emerged and received attention. In this study, the author attempts to present a new perusal of philosophical texts based on the implication of “philosophy as a way of life” by criticizing conventional approaches. To this end, after explaining this concept and its legal standing among Muslim philosophers, the Treatises (Rasā’il) of Ikhwān al-Ṣafā (the Brethren of Purity) have been selected as a case study for further study and research. In these treatises, Ikhwān al-Ṣafā present a coherent philosophical system, outlining a philosophical discourse that reflects their monotheistic way of life. It seems that the Ikhwān's understanding of philosophy in the Islamic world is based on a holistic system whose ultimate goal is to achieve happiness and salvation of the soul.
