The Constituent Element of the State According to Avicenna and Hegel

Avicenna and Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel had different cultures, spaces and times. In addition to these facts, Avicenna had a deeper Aristotelian impact upon his philosophy than Hegel. Still, all these different elements between the two philosophers were not an obstacle to grounding the state upon religion. It's quite interesting how much Avicenna and Hegel resemble on grounding the state upon religion. Also, both philosophers apply to same or similar concepts and teachings in the context of grounding the state. We can give religion, spirit and the world spirit as examples to them. A very important side is that they tackle such concepts and teachings together with each other. Avicenna and Hegel actually did through these conceptual teachings essentially political theology. For both was the human being as zoon politikon also and more than zoon logikon. The human is a state-being in this aspect. Avicenna and Hegel reach similar results due to these teachings: As a refutation of deism, deifying of the secular and the necessity of the prophecy for the state.
