NOTES

Kitāb al-Shifā (Book of Healing) is a systematic philosophical corpus of Ibn Sīnā (d.1037) that is written in a way that covers all areas of philosophy. Ibn Sīnā preserved the traditional hierarchy of chapters in his book. He discussed the topic by first mentioning the views of philosophers who came before him, analyzing those views, and then recording the resulting information he obtained on the subject.Many academic articles delve into specific topics discussed in the Book of Healing, while some more general works offer a holistic overview of the philosopher's views. However, there is a shortage of works that comprehensively cover all chapters of the Book of Healing based on the subjects or concepts it deals with. For this reason, the author presents a comprehensive understanding that covers all parts of Book of Healing in this work, 'Book of Healing (Overview of all Chapters)'.It is hoped that this work, written in a simple and understandable language, will guide researchers studying Ibn Sīnā's philosophy
