Shihab al-Din Yahya ibn Habash Suhrawardi

Shihāb al-Dīn Abū al-Futūḥ Yaḥyā ibn Ḥabash ibn Amīrak al-Suhrawardī (Persian: شهاب‌الدین سهروردی, also known as Sohrevardi; 1154–1191) was a Persian philosopher and founder of the Iranian school of Illuminationism, an important school in Iranian and Islamic philosophy.

He is referred to by the honorific title Shaikh al-ʿIshraq "Master of Illumination" and Shaikh al-Maqtul "the Murdered Master", in reference to his execution for heresy. Mulla Sadra, the Persian sage of the Safavid era described Suhrawardi as the "Reviver of the Traces of the Pahlavi (Iranian) Sages", and Suhrawardi, in his magnum opus "The Philosophy of Illumination", thought of himself as a reviver or resuscitator of the ancient tradition of Persian wisdom. Suhrawardi provided a new Platonistic critique of the peripatetic school of Avicenna that was dominant in his time, writing on logic, physics, epistemology, psychology, and metaphysics.
