Abstract
Philosophy as a special kind of thinking in ancient Greece found its complete fulfillment in Aristotle. This thinking influenced three Abrahamian religions, that is, Judaism, Christianity and Islam. As a result, unprecedented questions appeared in philosophy. In the course of Islamic thought three main positions were taken on the Greek philosophy and its perfect representative, Aristotle. The aim of this paper is to deal with these positions and their impact on the development of philosophy in Islam and the Middle Ages.
