The aim of this article is to present views on the Arab-Islamic tradition (turas) of one of the most famous contemporary Arab thinkers Muhammad Abed al-Jabiri. This Moroccan scholar was an important promoter of democracy in the Arab World. He stood out from the rest of pro-democratic thinkers in his thorough analysis of the Arab-Islamic tradition, a good understanding of which, according to him, plays a great role in the future of the Islamic world. The article discusses his deliberations on the history of Islamic philosophy. By concentrating on this subject, Al-Jabiri wanted to find evidence that rational forces had been present in Islamic legacy for a long time and should be resurrected today in order to shape public opinion towards more sceptical reading of tradition. The result of this would be the desired nahda – Arabic Renaissance and modernity. In this task he recalls the medieval philosopher Ibn Rushd (Averroes) whom he considers an example to be followed in matters such as the relation between religion and science, the attitude towards non-Muslim concepts and the struggle against harmful mysticism.
