Abstract:
We know that Muslim philosophers regard the acquired knowledge (al–‘ilm al–ḥuṣūlī) as some kind of mental existence and response to the various objections refuting the mental existence. But some objections to the mental existence proposed by the western philosophers, such as Hussell’s complicated mathematical formulae objection, are still unknown to Muslim philosophers and therefore have not received any response yet. Hussell’s objection says that no man can imagine such possibilities as polygons with several billion sides. So, they cannot be in our minds. We will try to find a resolution to the complicated mathematical formulae objection mostly based on the principles of Muslim Philosophy – in particular of Ibn Sīnā’s philosophy: sometimes we will reconstruct and generalize Ibn Sīnā’s descriptive definition (rasm definition) resolution and sometimes too we ourselves will add some new points and counter-arguments. Such is the counter-argument: such an objection also makes problematic the opposite views – i.e.  intuition of the platonic forms and intuition of the numbers in the enumerated in the very physical world. Reconstructing and generalizing the descriptive definition resolution too, shortly speaking, is: instead of imagining the complicated essences, we here offer relatively simple descriptive definition and imagine this definition. Finally, we will response to the objections of the descriptive definition resolution.
