Abstract:
Ibn Sina believes in a metaphysical and ontological view between existence and the creator of possibilities - or his transcendence -. While creatures are changeable, and what is changeable and arises from non-existence cannot be the cause of its existence, then the cause of its existence is an absolute and eternal being. He thinks of the world as follows: The world was created out of nothing and with time. This means that time came into being with creation. Augustine and Ibn Sina both believed in the creation of the world by God. Ibn Sina proves time through motion. But in his early research, Augustine tried to define time in terms of motion, but in later theories rejected the definition of motion by time. Ibn Sina considers the category of motion to be precisely related to the concepts of power and action, and by considering the category of motion, he divides the material world into two worlds, the sub-moon and the supermoon. In Augustine's view, the one true God is made up of three persons under the headings: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Augustine believes that God created the world from formless matter, and that matter was created from non-existence.
