Summary/Abstract: One of the important schools of Islamic thought is illumination. However, throughout the history in the tradition of Islamic thought, Aristotle and “New Plutonian Peripatetist” movement have been prioritised, and this school has been mostly ignored. It should be known that illumination, which has been built by Suhrawardi as a “light metaphysics” that depends on “intuitional method”, has enriched the Islamic philosophy tradition. The opposition Suhrawardi faced in his age has prevented the spread of his ideas. Because of this reason, illumination has been ignored to some extent in the thought environments. However, it has continued it’s existence within several educative movements until today. It should be known that the comprehensive research of illumination, which is one of the truly original schools of Islamic thought, would contribute to understanding Islamic thought fully and sturdily.
