Özet

Muslim thinkers including al-Farabi, al-Khawarizmi, and Ibn Sind tried to present a general view of the sciences through their works on the classification of sciences (tasnif al-'ulum). For some the concept of science was more philosophical, while others prefered a more general approach. Ottoman thinker Mehmed b. Abi Bakr known as Sacaklizade in his Tartib al-'ulum seeked to present the classification of sciences in a broad sense in which he dealt with thirty five sciences covering their definitions, scopes and main issues.
