Nasir al-Din al-Toushi
1201‐74
Iranian Twelver theologian, philosopher, and astronomer. Born in Tus, died in Baghdad. After Hulegu's invasion of Iran, he became his political advisor, and the observatory he built at Hulegu's command remains in Marāgha, Azerbaijan. As a philosopher, he grasped the true meaning of Ibn Sina's ontology and built the foundations of the theory of aṣāla al‐wujūd, the fundamental reality of existence, which is the mainstream of modern Iranian philosophy. His major works include Commentary on the Book of Instructions and Awakening of Ibn Sina, Book of Ethics of Nasir, and Astronomical Tables of Ilkhan.
