Abstract

This article aims to analyze the interaction between Greece philosophy and Islamic thought, as well as to assess its impact on the development of science and ethics in Muslim societies. Islamic philosophy has played an important role in the development of scientific and ethical thought in the world, but it is often seen as simply a successor to the Greece tradition. This research aims to explore the uniqueness and contribution of Islamic philosophy in a broader historical and intellectual context. This research uses a qualitative approach with in-depth literature analysis, covering the main works of Muslim philosophers and relevant historical sources. Data was collected from various journals, books, and articles that discussed Islamic philosophy and its influences. The results show that Islamic philosophy not only adopts Greece ideas, but also develops new concepts that reflect the values and social context of Muslim society. Institutions such as Bayt al�Hikmah play a crucial role in facilitating the exchange of knowledge, which allows for the birth of critical and innovative thinking. Islamic philosophy is an original discipline and contributes significantly to the advancement of science and ethical thought. This research emphasizes the importance of understanding this intellectual heritage as an integral part of the history of global thought. This research is limited to the analysis of major works and does not cover all schools of thought in Islamic philosophy. Further research is needed to explore the impact of Islamic philosophy in modern and cross�cultural contexts.
