Özet:

Hayy b. Yakzan claims that the metaphysical information achieved through Nazar (istidlal) will only be converted into true knowledge with the client. In this direction, the work suggests a kind of work method that advocates the transition to the riyazet method after the Nazar method. The story of Hayy is about to show that this method is a universal state of conformity to the human nature and that the understanding of truth is actually an individual process. Those things which are described in terms of being a story, and which are translated with fiction, do not contain any fiction or symbolism. In this regard, the philosophical views of Ibn Tufeyl are expressed clearly by the character of Hayy b. Yakzan. This situation shows that symbolism in the work is actually only in the personality of Hayy B. Yakzan. A careful reading demonstrates that what this symbol is deleting is that the author himself. Therefore, Hayy B. Yakzan is a philosopher’s story of his own search for truth.
