Abstract
This article explores the methodological significance of Ibn Sina’s (Avicenna) intellectual legacy for the development of modern science. Focusing on his contributions to philosophy, medicine, natural sciences, and logic, the study highlights how his systematic approach, integration of theory and empirical observation, and rational methodology influenced both medieval and contemporary scientific thought. The analysis demonstrates that Ibn Sina’s methods provide valuable insights for modern scientific inquiry, particularly in terms of interdisciplinary integration, hypothesis formation, and analytical reasoning.
