Born 520 AH, which translates to 1126 CE, and died 1198 CE
(Full Name: Abu al-Walid Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Rushd)
Averroes was a highly influential figure known for his commentaries on Aristotle and for defending philosophy by returning to the text of Aristotle.
Averroes known for his extensive commentaries on Aristotle's works, particularly On the Soul (De Anima), which influenced European intellectual thought and his works are often considered the introduction to the corpus of Aristotelian works for Latin scholars.
Averroes wrote extensive commentaries on several of Aristotle's major works, including On the Heavens, On the Soul, and others within the Parva Naturalia.
He defended philosophy by returning to the text of Aristotle.
In his secular effort to explain and to revive the true doctrine of Aristotle, cosmology took a place of special importance
