Corbin described to divergences between Iranian Avicennism together with Latin Avicennism. besides he showed that we can see three different schools in Avicennism, which he called Avicennising Augustinism, Latin Avicennism and Iranian Avicennism.

Several Mu’tazilites were contemporaries of Avicenna, while other Mu’tazilites were against his views. For example the philosophical programme of Avicenna and his students was criticised by the Muʿtazilī Ḥanafī scholar Ibn al-Malāḥimī d. 1141, who argued that philosophy in the Greek tradition would be used to justify false beliefs and dilute the prophetic piece of acknowledgment of Islam. He increase forward Christianity as an example of a prophetic religion corrupted by Greek abstract thought.
