Notes
XIV. Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406), an Islamic philosopher who lived in the 11th century, thinks that God makes humans superior to other beings in the universe, thanks to their intelligence. According to him, reason is an ability that takes people to higher levels of humanity. Ibn Khaldun, who was also influenced by the views of the Islamic philosophers before him on the functioning of the mind, exhibited a different and quite original approach from them by naming the mind in a certain order as conjectural reason, empirical and theoretical mind in the process of producing knowledge. Ibn Khaldun states that man does not bring knowledge from birth and that he acquires the knowledge he acquires later, through various means of perception. According to him, humans who are born with the ability to learn begin to learn things by interacting with the environment. With this thought, he puts forward an opinion that is in line with Islamic philosophers such as Ibn Khaldun, Farabi and Ibn Sina and some verses in the Holy Quran. Ibn Khaldun, who sees sensory and mental data as sources of information in the process of acquiring and learning knowledge, does not accept that the truths of supersensible spiritual beings (universals) can only be grasped by human cognitive abilities. According to him, it is not possible to obtain true knowledge in this world by associating with the active mind. The mind has a limit beyond which it cannot go, and human beings cannot reach true knowledge through philosophical perceptions.
