 Averroes’ account of divine causality reflects his position that truth is to be found through correct interpretation of Aristotle, together with correct application of the principles and methods of philosophy. According to Averroes, the methods of philosophy are uniquely suited to establish truth (Taylor 2000). The role of religion is to transmit that truth to the masses via narrative and metaphor. Generally speaking, this position on the relationship between philosophy and religion is shared by other Aristotelians in the Arabic tradition, including al-Fārābī and Avicenna. The latter differ from Averroes in that they are less concerned than he is to interpret Aristotle correctly. Rather, they adopt Aristotle’s philosophical framework, but feel free to modify it in light of their own discoveries.
