The Book of Healing (Kitab al-Shifa)

The Book of Healing (Kitab al-Shifa) is a philosophical and scientific encyclopedia written by the Persian scholar Avicenna (Ibn Sina) in the 11th century. It explores various fields such as logic, natural sciences, mathematics, and metaphysics, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of knowledge and the universe. The work seeks to combine philosophy, science, and spirituality, emphasizing the importance of reason and logical inquiry. Although it is called "Healing," it isn’t a medical manual but a philosophical treatise that seeks intellectual and spiritual enlightenment as a path to understanding the divine and the nature of existence.
