Abstract
Creativity or uncreativity of the rational soul is one of the oldest problem of philosophy. Ibn Sina by giving some proofs has proven the creativity of the rational soul. Fakhr ad-Din ar Razi has propsed several critics to each of the Avecina’s argument. In this article, we are going to prove that, the origin of Razi’s critics is his misunderstanding in Ibn Sina’s philosophical views in potential thing through, the sameness of human being in one essence and differention of them by accidental, illumination of the rational soul by the active intellect with acceptivity of the body and misunderstanding in Ibn Sina’s proofs in impossibility of the reincarnation of the soul. In spite of this, Ibn Sina’s view in the connection of the imaginational souls to heavenly bodies and mortality of them are not correct and Razi’s critics can’t be responded.
Key words: Razi, Ibn Sina, Soul, Creativity, Reincarnation.
