Quṭb al-Dīn al-Rāzī al-Taḥtānī (d. 766/1365) was one of a triumvirate of scholars allegedly associated with Shīʿism – the other two being al-ʿAllāma al-Ḥillī (d. 726/1325) and Badr al-Dīn al-Tustarī (d. 732/1332) – who played an important role in shaping and transmitting Avicennan thought. Through their adjudicative commentaries on Ibn Sīnā’s (d. 428/1037) al-Ishārāt wa-l-tanbīhāt, Taḥtānī, Ḥillī, and Tustarī created a narrative that pitted Sunnī scholars critical of Ibn Sīnā and Avicennism – exemplified by Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī (d. 606/1210) – in opposition to their Twelver Shīʿī defenders and interpreters – exemplified by Naṣīr al-Dīn al-Ṭūsī (d. 672/1274). This understanding of post-Avicennan Arabic and Islamic philosophy is informed by the assumption that these three scholars were all, in fact, Shīʿīs. Many bio-bibliographical sources, however, claim that al-Taḥtānī was not. This article examines the sources for his life, paying particular attention to the question of his sectarian affiliation. It reveals that Sunnī and Shīʿī scholars relied on different sources for and relayed different information about Taḥtānī’s life. Ultimately, it claims that the evidence suggests that he was a Sunnī.
