Andalusia, the center of the Islamic world in the West, possesses a unique political, social, cultural, and intellectual structure. With its accumulated knowledge in art, literature, architecture, science, philosophy, Sufism, theology, and other disciplines, Andalusia is one of the most important cornerstones of Islamic civilization. Despite this importance, research on Andalusian Islamic thought in general, and Andalusian Islamic thought in particular, has been quite weak until recently. However, interest in Andalusian studies has recently begun to grow, and Andalusian thought and thinkers have positively contributed to this. It has become imperative to systematically collect and compile the accumulated intellectual knowledge over time, ultimately producing a study entitled "Andalusian Islamic Thought History." Prepared for this purpose, this work focuses primarily on philosophy, Sufism, and theology, examining the thinkers who emerged in Andalusia between the ninth and fifteenth centuries, who somehow combined these three fields, and their works. In addition, this study outlines Andalusian Islamic thought, reveals its political and social background, and offers insights into the formation, development, and representatives of this thought in Andalusia. This work, prepared with such comprehensive content by experts in the field, can be considered, with its methodology and system—based on the literature review—to be the first national and one of the few international studies on the "History of Andalusian Islamic Thought."
