Suhrawardi, al- (sh) and temporomandibular (medicine)


Suhrawardi, al- (sh)




in full Shihab al-Din Ya?ya ibn ?abash ibn Amirak al-Suhrawardi or al-Maqtul

born งใ 1155, Suhraward, Iran
died 1191, Aleppo, Syria

Muslim theologian and philosopher.

He studied in E?fahan, a leading centre of Islamic scholarship. His works fell into two categories: doctrinal and philosophical tracts, many of which took account of the ancient Greek philosophers, and shorter treatises intended to guide the mystic toward esoteric knowledge. His best-known work, The Wisdom of Illumination, held that existence is a single continuum that culminates in pure light, representing God. Charged with heresy by rivals in the Muslim clergy, he was executed by the Ayyubid prince Malik al-?ahir
thus earning himself the appellation al-Maqtul ("the Killed").
