The issue of knowledge over world objects is one of the most controversial issues in the history of philosophy. Meanwhile, dealing with knowledge without a firm belief in the relationship between cognitive faculties and the objects of knowledge is almost impossible. One type of knowledge is rational knowledge which relies on the relationship between intelligent and intelligible. Avicenna is one of those philosophers who have discussed this issue in great detail. In some cases, he has provided support explicitly or implicitly for the unification of intelligent and intelligible, and in some other cases he seems to reject it. This dual position has made Avicenna’s conflict of opinion a significant issue.This issue and the way to deal with it has been discussed by philosophers. The present article is an attempt to investigate the inadequacies in Avicenna’s conflict of opinion and presents a new way of dealing with this conflict using av historical frame of analysis.
