“Don’t depend too much on anyone in this world, because even your own shadow leaves you when you are in darkness.”
Ibn Taymiyyah

“I have always known that Greek logic is neither needed by the intelligent nor of any use to the dullard.”
Ibn Taymiyyah

“Analogy (qiyās al-tamthīl) and the categorical syllogism (qiyās al-shumūl) are equivalent. Certainty (yaqīn) and probability (ẓann) differ only according to the subject matter [of the premises]. If the specific subject matter is certain in one, it is certain in the other, and, if it is probable in one, it is probable in the other.”
Ibn Taymiyyah, The Rebuttal of the Logicians
