Was Al-Mantiq Al-Kabīr Compiled By Fakhr al-Dîn Al-Rāzī? A Study on the Problem of Authorship

Fakh al-Din al-Razi is considered as the initiator (al-imam/authority) of the "mutaahhir" period, an important period in the history of logic. And the subject of this article is about “al-Mantiq al-Kabir”, his most comprehensive work on logic. The critical edition of the work has not been prepared for reasons such as being a single copy and having no record that it belongs to al-Razi, and no work has been done on it yet. However, al-Mantiq al-Kabir is the first large-scale and independent work of Razi on logic, and in this respect it is among the sources of his other works such as al-Mulahhas, Sarh al-Isharat va al-Tanbihat and Sharh al-Uyun al-Hikmah.Fakhr al-Din al-Razi
