Avicenna or Aristotelianism speculative

Avicenna (died 22th June 1037) he has been one of two major philosophy of Islam and very much important studious of Aristoteles and he has took and kept and his think, because during read of Metaphysics we can read and consider that think of Aristoteles has conditioned very deeply the think of Avicenna, because he has adopted same speculative method of Aristoteles, and he has attained that this method was very logical; we can begin with a step of this book, Avicenna said: “The philosophical  sciences are divided between practical sciences and speculative , and difference is that speculative sciences are these through they are searching the improvement of speculative power of soul through of mind in act”. We must consider that this steps have two referents to Aristoteles, first is that speculative name and method that Avicenna has used and second is the name act, because Aristoteles says about act as done matter, this is power and act, power is possibility that something become and act it is done, therefore Aristoteles. Other step very confirming this thesis is: “The subject of mathematic is abstract from matter or something that has quantity, but they study it, which are alone states befall about quantity and no certainly matter…”, this is logical think and speculative exercise, because from study of reality we can take hypothesis and become it logical, therefore think. Other logical step that shows very elementary deduction but is Aristotelian way: “Existent of God we can search to others sciences, otherwaise we can’t search it in others science because is could be that can’t search it in nothing science”, this is very simple step is certainly scant but it is logical think and because it is took from reality, therefore it is true and it has determined think; it is Aristotelian method.Other logical step that shows very elementary deduction but is Aristotelian way: “Existent of God we can search to others sciences, otherwaise we can’t search it in others science because is could be that can’t search it in nothing science”, this is very simple step is certainly scant but it is logical think and because it is took from reality, therefore it is true and it has determined think; it is Aristotelian method. He has adopted way of Aristoteles because he has took syllogism and the Metaphysic is book with major participation to Aristotelian syllogism, because he has took the logical of Aristoteles: “We can think now that each entity, that are two, although identic to other, to intention, it is different to different fundamental intention. Thereby we have two possibilities: so fundamental intention could can be a condition to existent or no. If it is  everything that has this fundamental need to existence  it could identic to this characteristic , but if it no fundamental condition to existence; if on contrary condition to existence, accordingly the need to existence could be alone an accident to need, this is something added and alone when need of existence is reached as need of existence …It is impossible that the two entities are different to intention that is their nature”, I understand that it is very philosophical think, but if we consider two causes to one thing and this causes aren’t different between them they can’t be identical, it is explication of this think; but we must consider that it is syllogisms of Aristoteles.
