Indeed Ab\u016b al-\u1e24a\u011f\u011f\u0101\u011f al-Mikl\u0101t\u012b (d. 1237) is an A\u0161\u02bfarite theologian, who was born in Fez. He is the author of a Quintessence of the Intellects in Response to Philosophers on the Science of Principles in which he aims at refuting the Peripatetic philosophers in their own field, using their own weapons. This article will first attempt to draw the portrait of this atypical theologian. It will then focus on showing that al-Mikl\u0101t\u012b \u2013 although he never mentions his name \u2013 is a reader of Averroes and in particular, of his Tah\u0101fut al-Tah\u0101fut, of which he makes various and unexpected uses. A close look at these uses will enable us to better define the nature of al-Mikl\u0101t\u012b's work. More importantly, this article will try to prove that al-Mikl\u0101t\u012b provides us with a key passage of Averroes' lost treatise On the Prime Mover. At the heart of the Rushdian criticism of Avicenna's \u201cmetaphysical\u201d proof, this passage should throw new light on Averroes' precise understanding of this proof.","btype":3,"date":"2012","language":"English","online_url":"","doi_url":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/S095742391200001X","ti_url":"","categories":[{"id":45,"category_name":"Proceedings","link":"bib?categories[]=Proceedings"},{"id":47,"category_name":"Relation between Philosophy and Theology","link":"bib?categories[]=Relation between Philosophy and Theology"},{"id":14,"category_name":"al-\u0120az\u0101l\u012b","link":"bib?categories[]=al-\u0120az\u0101l\u012b"}],"authors":[{"id":1489,"full_name":"Yamina Adouhane","role":1},{"id":1489,"full_name":"Yamina Adouhane","role":1}],"works":[],"republication_of":null,"translation_of":null,"new_edition_of":null,"book":null,"booksection":null,"article":{"id":1757,"journal_id":null,"journal_name":"Arabic Sciences and Philosophy","volume":"22","issue":"2","pages":"155\u2013197"}},"sort":["Al-Mikl\u0101t\u012b, a Twelfth Century A\u0161\u2019arite Reader of Averroes"]}
