Description
As a corollary to his argument for the atomic conception of the body (j**m), al-Razi also argues for the atomic conception of time, motion, distance and change. Aspects of his argument are presented here through a translational survey of his Matalib Aliyyah. For him, if any of the five (body, time, motion, distance, change) is atomistic in structure, then all the others will have to be conceived in atomistic terms as well. Keywords: Fakhr al-Din al-Razi on time, motion, distance, change; kalam; Islamic philosophy; atomism; Matalib Aliyyah.
