Abstract

Love has been present in several manifestations in that Islamic thought has been expressed. Avicena wrote a Treatise on Love that has been considered as a mystic writing. An attentive reading of this work shows that its content is not mystic neither gnostic, but it rather agrees with the Avicenna�s philosophical doctrines exposed on other of his most important works. The content of that Treatise is described on this paper.
