Özet:

The roles of Plato and Farabi, the most important philosophers of ancient Greek and Turkish Islamic philosophies, are very impor-tant in the expression of the concept of morality and moral un-derstanding. Both philosophers based the concept of morality on good, virtue and happiness. Plato, while describing virtue, states that the soul of the individual consists of three parts. He con-nects virtue to knowledge in his Amplitude Dialogues. Af-terwards, he reconsidered virtue and came to the conclusion that the boundaries between them should be determined. While doing this, he argued that virtue has something to do with reason and knowledge. He stated that only in this way happiness can be achieved. The most important issue in Fârâbî's moral philosophy is happiness. He built his moral philosophy on happiness. Ac-cording to Fârâbî, happiness is the good that a person wishes only for himself, not for obtaining different things. Because man does not have anything greater than happiness that he can achi-eve. Farabi argues that the ultimate goal of people's behavior and efforts is happiness.
