Shigab al-Din Yahya al-Sughravardi (1155-1191) was a medieval thinker of the Islamic world, author of several significant works, among which the Philosophy of Light occupies a prominent place. The author's profound concept, which can be defined as an attempt to express the worldview through rationalised intuition, addressed to the problem of being (symbolically defined as "light"), has taken a significant place in many schools of Islamic philosophical thought. As-Sughrawardi was commented on, criticised, and reinterpreted, but for most Islamic thinkers of the late Middle Ages and early modernity, he remained a significant and at the same time mysterious historical figure. Many features of this thinker's "philosophical system" are compared to the achievements of twentieth-century European philosophy, especially the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl. Having plunged into the world of al-Sughravardi's philosophy, the reader will see the whole range of meanings of this tradition, from local cultural to universal civilisation.
