Journal Title: Dini Araştırmalar -Altı Aylık Bilimsel Dergi- - Year 2013, Vol 16, Issue 42
Abstract
In this article, we investigated the views of the two important figures of the history of thought, Aristotle and Avicenna, about reincarnation. Both of the philosophers reject reincarnation. Before dealing with the subject, we explored, for reference, the views of some of the philosophers before Aristotle and Avicenna, regarding soul and reincarnation. Afterwards, upon determining the definitions of soul offered by both philosophers, we tried to illustrate why they rejected reincarnation. Finally, we made a comparison so as to establish the similar and different points between their views
