| 總結: | The aim of this paper is to examine the importance of the Syriac tradition in transmitting Greek philosophy to the Islamic con-text, starting with an introduction of some historical-philosophical aspects emphasizing the role of Christian Syriac translators. This is followed by a study of the impact of Aristotle’s Categories on the creation of the philosophical vocabulary used to formulate the Trini-tarian dogma in the Christian tradition, and on the discussions con-cerning divine attributes within Islamic theology. Through these two examples, I reveal how the Syriac philosophical tradition influenced some Islamic theologians, and argue that the translation work done by Eastern Christians was remarkably important in specific cases.
