This study aims to an alyzesome of the Arabic readings of the philosophical texts of Ibn Rushd and to demonstrate their influence on the ones that western researchers have followed. In spite of the ideological dimensions of oriental studies, they opened new horizons and introduced approaches that affected the way we deal with Rushditexts. Moreover. they have presented intellectual challenges that must be dealt with cognitively, not only with a prejudiced selective manner. The researcher tries to point out to the reasons which made the Arabic readings for Cordoba differ from one researcher, sometimes to the extent of complete opposition.
