Abstract:

In addition to having common points with the translation of the works of the ancient Greek period into Arabic, it is witnessed that the debates on which of the two different disciplines, logic and syntax, are superior. These debates have led to the emergence of important views on logic and the theoretical structure of nahiv. However, according to the tenth century Islamic philosopher Abu Nasr Fârâbî, who played a conciliatory role on this issue, the science of logic; It is universal in terms of establishing common laws for the words of societies, and syntax science is two different disciplines only in terms of determining the laws for the grammar and words of a society. In fact, the science of nahiv has been realized as a preliminary preparation in the context of understanding and facilitating the science of logic, especially in the beginning, and the science of nahiv has been mentioned first in the classification of sciences. Therefore, according to Fârâbî, who likens the relationship between grammar and words to the relationship between the science of logic and the meanings he calls rationals, these two sciences are not opposite to each other, but are accepted as two disciplines that are compatible with each other. For this reason, by scanning the relevant sources, the analogy that Fârâbî established between grammar and logic was tried to be clarified. For this reason, in the study, firstly, after briefly mentioning Fârâbî's life, logic-nahiv concepts, the interaction of logic and syntax sciences in the context of language and thought, the logic-nahiv analogy proposed by Fârâbî was examined.
