Abstract

Ibn Sina's symbolic stories have always been considered as mystical allegories; The issue that has made the most important feature of these works, which is their story, less attention; If these works as works of art can fill the gaps in art-related topics in Ibn Sina's thought and illuminate new and different parts of Sheikh Al-Rays's thought on the subject of art. Among Ibn Sina's mystery stories, the status of the Risalat Al-Tair is different from other stories, a work that can be considered the key to understanding Ibn Sina's view of art. A work consisting of an introduction, the main and ending narrative, which is the story of captive birds that are looking for the end with their journey and behavior. In this work, Ibn Sina raises various issues that revolve around the axis of knowledge, knowledge, behavior, education and training; These issues are common to the issues raised in the Futwat Nameh in the type of view, expression and purpose. In this article, according to the topics and concepts discussed in the Risalat Al-Tair, this work has been examined with the principles and concepts presented in the Futwat Nameh  to determine why and how this work of Ibn Sina becomes a Futwatnameh for artists.
